What does it mean to "qualify" for a loan?
All lenders have certain rules by which they determine
whether a prospective borrower will be able to repay the loan. These rules
are based on the repayment histories of millions of borrowers and the
characteristics of those borrowers who defaulted on their loan payments.
For example, statistics show that the lower the down payment, the more
likely the borrower is to default on payment.
