SANTA ANA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 30, 2026-- First American Data & Analytics, a leading provider of property-centric information, risk management, and valuation solutions, today announced that its FraudGuard^® solution has been integrated into Forta Solutions’ Agility™, an adaptable modern warehouse lending platform built by and for warehouse lenders.

Powered by advanced analytics, FraudGuard is designed to help identify potential indicators of fraud and hidden risks that can impact mortgage salability in the secondary market. By integrating FraudGuard into the Agility platform, funders in the warehouse lending space can swiftly assess critical factors, such as borrower identity fraud, counterparty exclusions, undisclosed liabilities, occupancy misrepresentation, and property valuation anomalies, to fund faster with greater confidence.

“In today’s fast-paced funding environment, warehouse lenders need a loan-level risk tool that streamlines their process instead of creating noise and insignificant red flags,” said Paul W. Harris, general manager of Mortgage Analytics atFirst American Data & Analytics. “The integration of FraudGuard into the Forta Agility platform will provide warehouse lenders with tailored risk analytics to accelerate funding, while reducing downstream salability risk.”

Unlike more generalized fraud prevention tools, FraudGuard offers a specialized solution for warehouse lenders, providing precision analytics that support faster funding with greater confidence in loan quality. The Agility platform integration operationalizes these capabilities, embedding a streamlined FraudGuard delivery process directly into the warehouse lending workflow.

“Agility empowers warehouse lenders to operate with greater speed, transparency, and confidence at scale,” said Kathy Hancock, CEO and co-founder of Forta Agility. “Incorporating FraudGuard into the Agility platform means our users now have access to a powerful suite of fraud-detection capabilities that equips funders with the insight they need to move quickly and confidently.”
