| You know you are sub prime when you have a loan amount of $650,000 on a house you bought 15 years ago at $200,000 and bought your kids a $50,000 Benz and a $30,000 Corolla when they graduated from High school. |

| When you have borrowers call you to hopefully bail them out of foreclosure. They tell you their credit is bad do to missing payments but upon further investigation you find out that they are not on title, nor are they on the note. They just don't pay their bills. Luckily I found this out before pulling credit with some in debth questioning. |

You know you have a subprime loan if...
- Your borrower wants to quit claim his 98 year-old mother-in-law to the property so she can be a co-signer.(happened)
- Your borrower walks in to your office in his Waffle House uniform and wants a stated income loan.(happened)
- Your borrower asks you if he can (personally) borrow the appraisal money. (HAPPENED!)
- You pull the borrower's credit and instead of giving you a report it returns the message "Please retain applicant - Law enforcement dispatched" (No that didn't really happen but it's darn funny – this is a spin on my ongoing joke about the consumer who’s credit is so bad “he should be in jail”)
- When you ask your borrower for his last 2 tax returns he gives you 2001 and 2004 (because he ain't filed the rest yet).(HAPPENED!)
- When your borrower calls and asks you to bail him from his foreclosure, but when you pull public records, the house was titled to the bank 6 weeks ago (happened).
PS: Still laughing at the Fingerhut comment! :-D -

You know you are subprime when: Borrower asks, if they still have to pay their mortgage and bills since they are going to be paid off.
Yeah Fingerhut and Castlepoint comments classic!!! |

You know it's subprime when:
**The borrower lives in a 5th wheel in the driveway because all of the rooms and the garage are being being rented out weekly to day laborers
**When the borrower keels over with a heart attack after you pull the credit and discover that there's still $143 left on one of the 9 tradelines
**When the borrower hasn't worked for 6 years because of the lawsuit he filed against Steven Spielberg for stealing his ideas. He also has a backup suit against Bill Gates as he was the true inventor of Windows
**When you call on the job reference for the investment firm where they make $22k a month and it turns out to be a new age bookstore. (That's true. I went in and asked the owner if she had any books on magic. / Sure, what do you need. / I need a book that can teach me how to make a bookstore into an investment bank)
**When the paint is peeling, the lawn is brown and uncut, the house stinks of cat pee but the 24's on the new H2 are immaculate
**When they feel that they're entitled to the 5.5 fixed their brother in law got 3 years ago with 3x the score at 80 ltv |

| You're trying to help a foreclosure bailout and she brings you a garbage bag full of documents that smell like cat urine. Then you have to copy the original docs and throw them out so that you can work the the docs. |

Borrower walks away from closing a refi that is saving her $300/month because she refuses to pay a $25 collection placed by a dentist for skipping an appointment without 24hr notice. Borrower insisted the 4 hour notice was sufficient and she wasn't paying and wouldn't let me pay it because it wasn't about money, it was the principle.
Yeah lady, you showed them. Now you're letting the dentist do you for a lot more than $25, idiot.
Oh, and what kind of idiot Underwriter kills a deal over that? The next post should be- 'You might be an underwriter if...' |

You tell the borrower what their payments are going to be on the new manufactured home and the five acres that go along with it and they say "Yeah, we can make a couple of those"!
I Kid you not. |

LOL, I have one like that right now. Called today again and told me his sista wants to help him. I said *great*, how is her credit? He said, no problem there, she has good credit, pays for everything in cash.I thought hmmmm and ask, does she work? He said, oh no, she don't need to work, she gets a check every month from welfare.

It might be a subprime deal if...
Customer brings bankruptcy paperwork to your office and the smell of smoke nearly knocks you over as you are making copies. |

You might be subprime when....
Your broker told you on Monday that your new cash out loan will be set to close on Friday but calls you on Weds. to let you know that we should wait another 10 days to close because of a 12K pre-pay that just came across on the payoff but you insist on closing Friday anyaway...why?..because first thing Tuesday morning he put a 2K non-refundable deposit on an RV with the balance due on Friday. (loan closing on Friday, not funding). SO I took a chance, had my att. draw up a note, had borrower sign it when he picked up the 11,200 cashiers check I got from my own bank for him. He got his RV, we closed the loan after the pre-pay expired and I got all my money back..(thank god) Hopefully I will have a client for life, we shall see.

I laugh when people call me wanting to refi out of their I/O's so they can get a P&I loan.
"Just pay more".
I suppose a more unethical lender would just refi them. |

I get these a lot too as far as prequals! Goes to show some people have to be forced to pay a certain amount in order to actually do it! A lot of times they will be willing to take a higher rate just so it isn't interest only...crazy! I don't think we have closed any though. When the borrowers sees the new payment, then they realize why they are in an interest only loan. |
