The easy answer here is just to create more/higher barriers wherein the applicant will already be declined before you get to that point.

The El Paso County Sheriff's Office on Tuesday said that because Pineira's residence was within El Paso city limits, he needed to file a report with El Paso Police Department.Murillo said she also reached out to the Police Department, but nothing has been done.On Tuesday, El Paso police spokesman Darrel Petry said currently the department has ongoing investigations against the Schobers and their company El Paso Home Buyers, but declined to answer any other questions or provide any specifics on the investigations.Complaints against the Schobers and their company by other alleged victims have been featured by Channel 14-KFOX and Channel 26-KINT in the past.

If the area were destroyed by a hurricane, businesses shut down, tourism industry declined etc., would it even be worth rebuilding those buildings on the same lot or just sell the lot and move on. 

Prior to 2006, BK was an automatic decline and we told tenants not to even apply.

If you rent to him and allow the girlfriend to live there, but then decline the single mom with 4 adult children that don't want to be on the lease on another house, grey areas start to appear.

Just stay away from MARYVALE at all costs regardless......That area just continues to decline.

You could offer as a trade that you will send them the people who decline to list over fee issues.

That's not true at all.Many deals fall out for whatever reason.Also the pending comp might have closed already and the listing broker didn't update the status yet in the MLS.I find this frequently and even though my local MLS can fine the broker/agents for not updating on time they are still lazy agents out there.A sold comp 6 months back means nothing.Finance markets have changed,money down,time to close,more regulations,your local market could have stayed flat,declined heavily,or has appreciated and gotten hot.So 6 months ago does nothing for me.Recent closings in 30 to 60 days max in close proximity and not far away will paint a better picture.You also need to look at what is common in buyer paid closing costs and the list price to selling price ratio and days on the market until a sale.Good Luck

916.50 is your actual average monthly payment (you'll have two months at $1269 and ten at 846).I'm assuming you financed near 100% based on loan value to market value unless your area in DFW declined in price.

Also, my listing shows "DECLINED" on zillow because the agent who posted the listing for the person I bought it from hadn't yet removed their listing.
