Holding Fellow Lenders to a higher standard! Misinformation is the leading candidate for confusion!

Today, I am furious!

Why you ask?? Well, let me tell you EXACTLY WHY!!

The hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil, moronic monkeyman posts I have been reading lately are ticking me off! Why?? Because I spend all day responding to comments, posting and reposting the correct information, and more importantly trying to "RAISE THE BAR" within our industry!

For YEARS, we lenders have blamed REALTORS, the liberal news media and others for our OWN mistakes! NOW, today, I completely understand why! My friends and I that are in a small group here on Active Rain, have decided that we no longer can put up with this crap! I call it crap, because that is EXACTLY what it is! Unprofessional, misleading, misinformed, and idiotic crap!

PLEASE email me at any time, and I will be HAPPY to either answer your questions directly, specifically, and more importantly, from a 21 year veteran in the industries standpoint! IF I CANNOT answer your question, I will put you in touch with someone who can, that may be more experienced, smarter, or State Specific than I am! I will also provide you at ANY TIME with blogs, profiles, or email copies from some of these so called "sources, or wealths of information", and if necessary, will dispute their comments line by line!

Let's face it! ACTIVE RAIN is viewed by consumers! NOT JUST people in the industry! PLEASE,, I beg you....keep this in mind when posting information! Please don't confuse...please please please inform with positive, corrrect information!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Some quick quick quick examples of mornic statements!!

1. The USDA is out of money! Please are still lending TODAY, at 100% through the USDA! The loans are STILL being made!

2. Dont comment on FHA loans in a blog or otherwise, unless you do them currently, or have a vast amount of information in your arsenal to back up your claims!

3. Dont BLAST your fellow loan originators, officers, or the like, and expect courtesy and happiness in return!

4. Dont leave the customers responsibility OUT of your blogs! Dont you people realize that they can be to blame too!

5. Do you seriously think, having only BANKs do loans, that customers will get more honest service, quicker answers, more upfront answers, and better deals?? are you HIGH???

6. Lastly, there is a HUGE HUGE HUGE difference between Bankers, Mortgage Bankers, Mortgage Companies, and Mortgage Brokers. I am confident that after reading THIS blog, the experienced people in my group will probably ALL BLOG on this topic alone!

Folks, this monkey see monkey do attitude that people have reagarding posting misleading information, or SCARING the general population into thinking this is the norm, HAS TO STOP!

I love Active Rain! I love the forum! I love honesty, integrity, and ethics! When I post something, it is from experience, and I have researched it FIRST!

Dont you all remember college test taking tactics?? DONT EVER make something absolute! This may only be from YOUR, or your COMPANIES perspective! We as lenders, realtors, mediators, credit repair companies, etc, bankers, etc..etc..etc...HAVE A RESPONSIBILITY to post ACCURATE INFORMATION! With the economy in turmoil, and people believing everything they hear or read, we MUST MUST MUST be accurate in our statements!

Raising the bar, holding people to a higher standard is my obligation, and I take it very seriously! For those of you who do not, please re-think before you blog!
