CREDIT SCORES

Mortgages are slipping through the fingers of potential borrowers because lending rules are getting stricter. Even people with above-average credit may have trouble getting loans, and some borrowers could lose a home under contract if their score slips a point or two between pre-approval and closing.

Do you have that problem too lately?

You are right the limits are getting stricter. Never count on anything until it closes.

Yes. I even had a guy with 800+ credit, owned 3 properties outright and had big $$$ in the bank, and they scrutinized every little item in the file--all for a 150k investment property. Personally, I thought that was a bit extreme.
