Defendants include Ameriquest Employees
Ameriquest filed a civil lawsuit alleging that the defendants fraudulently obtained approximately 75 properties in Kansas City, Missouri and its neighboring areas from Ameriquest by helping to create or by submitting loan applications and documents, title reports and appraisals that misrepresented material facts and that they organized numerous loan transactions which were based on fraudulent, false and inaccurate loan applications and on greatly inflated appraisals and false title reports in order to fraudulently induce Ameriquest to make loans. In most of the loan transactions, according to the complaint, Ameriquest loan funds were to be used to refinance allegedly existing loans that never existed. Ameriquest loan funds were diverted and converted by the defendants and, primarily, by the Barber Defendants (and by entities which they controlled).
