This makes me mad. I was trying to buy a condo in Massachusetts and I had to walk away on Thursday because the bank was being unreasonable in their demands. I have a lot of student loan debt and being a single woman does not bode well for me (sad how some things don't change). I work 7 days a week at 2 jobs and it makes me so upset hearing how people who bailed on their mortgages are being offered new mortgages and I can't even get one! I have always paid all my bills and been very responsible. I am going to wait a year and try again. Just makes me mad.
I am an accountant I really hope that the people who declare bankruptcy know that they have to pay taxes as if their forgiveness was income.
