Hi guys and happy Friday,

Just wanted to touch base with everyone and remind them that cheaters never prosper. Especially with Ft. Lauderdale mortgages, they are being more scrutinized. You can not be getting away with the stuff that use to fly. You can not buy a house with out showing income or try and passoff a investment property as a primary residence.

I am going to give you a quick example. First a borrower from out of state who is a very affluent fellow decides now is the time to gobble up houses. So he decides to finance some and pay cash for some. He accidentally forgets to put on his loan application that he has already bought some houses. He thinks that it is not a big deal to omit it the properties he has just bought in the last two months. Besides they wont show up on his credit because he paid cash for them. Regardless he can afford to carry the properties because he makes great money.

Here is the problem. All Ft. Lauderdale Mortgages are being registered by lenders and banks in a database and so are the ones that do not get mortgages. Why are they doing this?  To prevent fraud. People are claiming investment homes as primary residences so that they can get an FHA insured mortgage. Or they are claiming investment properties as second homes. In the case of this borrower, he had bought a house in the same city as a second home already and was trying to buy another in the same fashion.

His brazen attempt to beat the system has landed him on the banned list in Ft. Lauderdale Mortgage circles. He is done. Bottom line dont lie on your application. You are trying to buy or refinance during the Great Recession.

Thats all folks. I will be giving you market conditions on my twitter. So you can follow me there at http://twitter.com/LoanFha or you can just follow me on this site. Have a great weekend and keep the questions coming.
