Top Ten Excuses(I’ve Gotten) For Not Making Mortgage Payment
TOP TEN EXCUSES (I’VE GOTTEN) FOR NOT MAKING MORTGAGE PAYMENT
10. I thought my ex wife made the payment
9. I already made 12 payments last year
8. I’m thinking of selling the property
7. My dog needed his teeth cleaned
6. My tenant stopped paying the rent
5. I was out of town and didn’t have access to my finances
4. The bank froze my funds because I’m a vegetarian
3. I kinda sold the property and the guy who kinda bought it was kinda supposed to pay the
mortgage
2. The electric bill came in kinda sudden last month
1. I need to rebalance my checking account before I can consider paying any bills
