I Want A Boat - She Wants A House
Buckwheats Magnificent 7 nominated article:The 10 Commandments for mortgage applicants really got me thinking. (as did all of the others of course). The number of people who have gone out and bought a car, time share, or a boat just before coming into a loan application has been more than I would have imagined.
Buckwheat said: “The following is a list of things that I see most often as a Loan Officer, that derail the process of getting approved for a mortgage loan.”
6. Tell your loan officer in advance if you plan on making a large purchase.
However he does say -
10. Do have fun.
For the guy who has to have his boat without waiting: I offer the solution - A starter boat.

Larry,
I love it! Can I steal the picture?
Thanks for the nomination. Once again, you snuck up on me and I found out via a backlink. It is a real honor to be nominated for this contest. What can I do to reciprocate?
Mark
