It is enlightening to see true industry professionals debate and provide raw front lines exposure to our industry today. I think we all knew what was ahead of us but were dealing with an industry that had been prosituted and pimped with the lure of fast fundings and YSP incentives that created instant millionaires of average working class people who found an easy "in" to celebrity. Obviously, you can tell I'm from California and am very passionate about using the current market to create a better industry that we can still use to pass down to our children as legacy. Oh, Dale, I contribute to your "tidbit" by sending a plug for Funding Suite credit reports. Visit them at fundingsuite.com. Their niche is building in credit repair "triggers" in their tri-merge reports giving you a score enhancement "range" that you can cure to give a boost in the score, often times the cures can be resolved and updated with a Rapid Rescore, but I must forewarn you -- they are in the infancy stages of this product, they've already had some system issues, they have a product ... when it works. In all, I think we'll all need to reset the standards we have for "production" in our workplace. In building our corporate infrastuctures we have to "add value", but most importantly we have to require our peers to aspire to become those of high trust because let's face it, if we don't, we'll never be able to repair the damage done. Just my "tidbit". Tanisha Dale & Rich. It is enlightening to see true industry professionals debate and provide raw front lines exposure to our industry today.

Who needed to spend time with a customer to improve their credit for a long range plan of 6 months to get them mortgage ready? It is a shame that more loan officers couldn't see past the immediate paycheck to build some real depth and knowledge about the industry that they helped put into the position that it is in today. For those who are still in the business and need a resource for their clients keep reading. <a href="getprequalified.com" rel="nofollow">GetPrequalified.com</a> has a huge section for credit management for the consumer and loan officer alike. Both can find resources to find out what they want about credit, credit scores etc. We also have a large section of articles that talk in more detail about different aspects of credit.
