    I think it's just plain 'ol mortgage fraud, for people who don't have sufficient deposits.

    So e.g. if a house sells for £95,000, the EA logs in to Rightmove and changes the price to £100,000. Thus the buyer now only needs a 95% LTV mortgage, rather than a 100% mortgage which is impossible to get these days.

    Is it not the Banks valuation of the property that is relevant here not the EA valuation?
