The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau (CFPB) has filed a lawsuit against Vanderbilt Mortgage, a subsidiary of Berkshire Hathaway, alleging that the company engaged in predatory lending practices by setting borrowers up for failure with unaffordable and risky home loans. The lawsuit claims that Vanderbilt ignored numerous red flags associated with manufactured home loans, leading many families to foreclosure. This action marks a significant challenge to a part of Warren Buffett’s extensive investment empire, highlighting issues of accountability in the mortgage industry.
