Ever heard of doing your research? You thought you could buy a house more expensive than you could afford and it would magically work out?
There are many bad ... ( 1 year ago by uglyfartface)
There are many bad "loan officers" out there, however, people need to read what there signing and take responsibility. So many home owners quickly blame the mortgage broker. There are underwriting guidlines anyways - how did they qualify? The underwriter doesn't get paid on commission so has no motivation to approve a loan that will not work out.
You do understand ... ( 1 year ago by andyitule)
You do understand we u/w a file according to the program they QUALIFY for and then condition it so that the borrower has to prove they QUALIFY for it. Unfortuanley the mass public does not understand how Mortgages and Lending works and are easily talked into practically anything. I,as a lender have to set boundaries with the LO's so that shit like this doesnt happen.

I've been in the mortgage industry for 25+ years and have never heard of a mortgage broker or anyone conducting himself in such a manner. That's a disgrace!

There are good lenders out there. Unfortunately there are also predatory lenders that roll the dice that by the time bad fortune befalls someone they will have already collected principal and a massive amount of interest. It is more common with credit card banks.

Oh what BULLSHIT!!! How did it go through without HIS signatures? And did he break her arm to make her sign? They got in trouble and are looking for a scapegoat.

wow what a BS, i am a loan officer, now i know there are some bad LO's out there, however, the excuse of oh he pressured me to sign is just a BS, what he put a knife to you're neck??? at bad times people start pointing fingures at others, how come nobody was talking about bad LO's when the house prices were going up crazy??? hmmm makes me woder about our society
What a crock, let ... ( 1 year ago by renomortgage)
What a crock, let me guess, the mortgage broker didnt let her read the truth in lending for 1,100.00 per month ? and of course she didnt ask about payments?? My guess, little did he know that he would be out of work or lose a job for a long period of time, therefore not being able to make payments
Ok the wife is an ... ( 1 year ago by sheffieldmvp)
Ok the wife is an idiot. She says "I even went to the bathroom to get away from him". If it was that bad, you should have just asked him to leave or got hospital security. Come on people, are you stupid? This is life, you have to stand up for your personal space and not let people bully you.
Makes me wonder how ... ( 1 year ago by slobomotion)
Makes me wonder how you became a loan officer given the fact that basic English seems beyond YOUR means. Seriously, I do generally agree with your point of view. But please watch your grammar. A lot of people see these comments. Thank you.

1s this is a blog not an english class final essay. 2nd what are you? Internet grammar teacher? 3rd. The requirement to become aloan officer is the understanding of different loan products and being able to explain to the client Not using the correct grammar, or else I would have been an English teacher. Thanks for the comment. Now go correct the 5th grade papaers. :-)

I have a similar professional background to yours. I am not an English teacher. I am sorry I seem to have offended you. I do generally agree with your point of view, hope you will improve your English, and wish you a good day.

AMERICANS,
You will go down in history as the empire that DENIED the GENOCIDE of the FIRST CHRISTIAN NATION of the WORLD, The Armenians, while you conspired with the JEWISH BANKERS to defraud the world -- the same JEWS who had JESUS CHRIST CRUCIFIED. Americans, you torture and kill in the name of democracy and freedom. YOU are an ABOMINATION.

Its always so very dramatic for these people and the loss of their home for whatever reason. I believe that since the Broker was an easy target to get the brunt of the blame thats where the finger gets pointed.Like everybody elses comment READ THE CONTRACT!, everybodies question in a refi is "whats my payment" even at the signing table "whats my payment". Bottom line the loss of their home was inevitable with her husband out of work and not earning an income.
