We have a customer with a total indebtedness of $578,187
$378,373 – to purchase apartments and pay-off contract for deed and 199,814 – Purchase Primary Residence
Both loans have paid as agreed since origination in February and April 2013. The customer filed bankruptcy in 2004 due to failed partnership for which we have no details on. We have no information on borrowers’ experience in managing rental properties. They are applying to puchase more rental properties but management doesn't feel comfortable with the risk of extending more credit at this time.
Is this a valid reason for not extending additional credit. How do we convey this on an Notice of Action Taken? Any suggestions as to wording would be greatly appreciated.
