They are trying to get you together to spruik you a property, run a mile and let him know he sucks
Why not shame him, it will help others from getting treated like that.
Always get independent advice not associated with the transaction, trust me, best advice you will ever get.
Cheers

Exactly why you need to have someone make sure you do not invest in these areas, pretty easy problem to overcome

I am sure they would love to realise these bad debts to get their cash reserves up so they use that cash to re lend at their 9 to 1 ratio This would give them ample funds to start lowering lending criteria to get money flowing again, What are your thoughts on which way it will go?
Antonio Santolo replied to the topic Beginners Beware – Foreclosure rates risng fast 2013 in the forum Help Needed! 11 years, 9 months ago
They are extremely worried re taking possession in certain areas as all this will reduce values and affect there non problem loans. Interesting times re values in the next 6 months I would imagine.

Not likely
I too know someone who buys huge numbers of properties from the lenders in bulk lots. These are usually apartments, flats and townhouses, usually the domain of the investor.

You should ring one of the Andrews direct. I think the son is the MD, he may appreciate to hear about what you received, a lot of time these decisions etc are made by the line manager. I cant imagine the Andrew's family would want tell a client they do not want them. Amazing

Even if for some unforseen reason the currency did go broke. land will always be there and there will always be a demand for shelter.
This is one occasion where I really really push, get good advice first, and make sure it is in no way linked to the transaction.
