@Will Barnard I tend to be the guy in the room standing by myself telling everyone to put the pitch forks down and go home, Frankenstein's monster is no threat.It usually cracks me up when folks pick on Fannie/Freddie/Ginnie in the mortgage market.  

And as such, seeing as everyone in the room understands that there's no chance in hell we could carry this monster if it didn't carry itself, please believe me when I tell you that lenders absolutely, flat out, no question about it want to know who they are dealing with, what principal's financial position is, and what their experience is.
