Unfortunately, the subprime mortgage
crisis has caused dramatic changes in the lending climate. Many lending
institutions have suffered tremendous losses and as a result have
tightened their lending standards drastically. Whereas it used to be
very, very easy to meet the requirements in order to get approved, it is
now much more difficult with most lenders.

find one that not only offers the lowest rates, but also has not
tightened lending standards to the point that only a tiny percentage of
applicants will qualify.
