Give me a museum and I'll fill it. (Picasso) Give me a forum ...
My DW and I were discussing this subject last evening. She is in the property management/leasing business and sees a LOT of applicants for some very high end properties here in ATL. What she has seen is that some very high earners have terrible credit. In the last week she has had over 20 applicants for a house that is listed for $5500/month. Most applicants have monthly incomes in excess of $15,000 and all but 3 had scores that were 700 or lower...and only one had a score above 800 (they currently live in California). She has also noticed that those with the higher scores will have older cars (they have to tell them what cars will be garaged at the location, I don't know why, though).
This is somewhat surprising to me. I get it that they very well may spend a lot of money, but I thought that the credit issuing folks LOVE to extend credit...and the more you have to spend, the more they would love you. Not sure the point of my rambling...just thought I would share with the group.
