A mortgage is more than a contract. It is a covenant, meaning it requires good faith by its parties in its execution. When a contract is designed and executed by one party, with an intent other than the purpose of making a good mortgage with a partner, then the contract by nature is not of good faith. When a contract cannot by mitigated in its problems by the honest efforts of its parties, then the contract by nature is not of good faith." --Eric James TARA-NICHOLLE NELSON: Recent Columns Why some sellers insist on cash Broker fights for commission on expired listing Shake your addiction to debt More Tara-Nicholle Nelson» ADVERTISEMENT SPECIAL 99 CENT OFFER: Read and Watch a GREAT real estate story on your iPad or your iPhone for only 99 CENTS!
