Re: WTF Wednesday
WTF mortgage officer! When you called me to ask if we could handle an $800 or $900 payment and I said yes! That would be very easy for us... That was NOT me saying that was all I was willing to pay. If you would have, you know, explained to me what you were asking, I could have given you a solid answer. We don't mind paying 1200 a month for mortgage, taxes, insurance and PMI... we were NOT happy receiving a pre-approval for $96000. Do you know what we can do with that where we live? Nothing! We paid off our old debt, have no car payments, no student loans. Why the heck was our number so low?! When I asked, her answer was, well, you said you could only handle $900... um, no. Definitely not what I said. Especially considering how well we did putting over a thousand a month into credit cards to pay everything off! Yuck! So, she is looking back into it, So ridiculous.
I would also like to WTF realtors. Those pretty pictures on your website? Those are a FAR cry from what you are ACTUALLY selling. Stop putting them through photoshop. Jeez.
I think they quote you a percentage of your income which is between 28%-35% depending on the lender. I totally know where you are coming from though. My first house I didn't qualify for much. Also the more you can put down the more you can get too!
My Blog:Through My Eyes
WTF contractor! You screwed up my customer's tile work and made her cry! And you blame it on the tile itself? There is NO reason it should be crooked. NONE. Sloppy work! Glad I'll never use you again.
I spoke to the mortgage lady and we had a bit of a miscommunication
We qualified for way more! Now we are excited again!!!
Yay thats great news!!
