A ROTTEN TOMATO
Some mortgages simply don’t pass the test. High LTV, questionable ability to make payments, unexplained chronic credit problems or other warning signs can add up. Gregory’s 15 Steps help uncover the weaknesses. A high interest rate doesn’t make a bad mortgage good.

Sometimes good borrowers hit a temporary bump. They can make the payments, love and care for their home, and have good reasons for wanting to stay.

They may be buying a rental property, expanding a business or purchasing inventory. They may also value flexibility and privacy outside traditional banking. With strong fundamentals and LTV generally below 65%, the mortgage may be well worth considering.
