You’re being asked to do more—with less money and fewer resources. But, with the right tools, your agency can detect, investigate and mitigate fraud in public housing more effectively than ever before.


Features

Agencies submit their list of current public housing assistance beneficiaries and LexisNexis Public Housing Integrity Scan will isolate and flag potential fraud, waste and abuse using a series of powerful indicators, including:

Identity Verification

Since many errors and abuses begin with faulty identification information, step one is always to confirm beneficiary identities.

Derogatory History

This search identifies felonies, drug convictions and other criminal activities that may not have been previously disclosed or occurred after residency began.

Asset Analysis

This investigation of wealth, assets and properties exposes misrepresentations of income.

Residency Review

Drivers’ license numbers, voter registrations, NCOA files, best addresses and other revealing data can be indicators that beneficiaries are not actually living in the provided housing, and may even be living out of jurisdiction.
