Do they say that about Bankers, Grocery Store Owners, Doctors (well maybe doctors..bad example) plumbers, etc?

And in one case, he never returned my calls nor my emails and was unreachable, even by my local banker... 

When I did a conventional home mortgage with the same bank as #1, they wanted to see cash in the account and know where it came from if it wasn't there for a couple statements back.I am not a banker.

I got a call from our banker a few weeks ago saying that we no longer qualify for a loan due to the increase in the posted rate. 

Hello BPMy name is Donovan Keim, I am for all intensive purposes a "banker" (assistant manager) for Huntington National Bank in OHIO. 

If you had $500K in equity, maybe a greedy banker might consider it, but it is unlikely.

The wide range of experiences in my lifetime and my encounters with community planners, architects, builders, tradespeople, bankers, financiers, accountants, business experts, lawyers/judges, social service workers, religious leaders and fellow landlords has given me insight and perspective that has been invaluable as well.

Worth a shot to at least talk a banker at each and see what they can do for you.

It's rare, but sometimes you'll be surprised and years later you'll get a call from banker/mortgage broker saying "hey my clients are trying to buy a house and you have a judgement on them from 6 years ago that has to be cleaned up before they can get bank financing, where do I send the check?"  

But I understand that your comparison wasn't doctors and bankers....
