All of this case law could be applied (at the Federal level) in considering what constitutes an unacceptable delinquency rate for loans made on primary residences if the courts agree.Any operator, no matter how small, should be prepared to defend their delinquency rates, and to work smarter and more effectively at decreasing them.
