I have made several loans on Prosper and I wanted to get a better feel for the total Prosper experience.  I thought I would try out the borrowing side.  The proceeds from this loan will be used to make loans to other Prosper borrowers.

This is my third try.  Third time's a charm--right?!  This has definitely been a learning experience.  For this listing I have increased my rate from 9% to 11%.

My DTI ratio is inflated as it does not indicate additional income that I derive from (1) the sale of timber from my heavily wooded property (200+ acres with some pictures included) ~$35,000 last year; (2) rental income ~$15,000; as well as (3) income from my stock portfolio (all reinvested).  If this income was included my DTI would be less than 24%.

My rating of 'AA' reflects my excellent credit history with no negative records.  I do not intend to decrease my credit score with (or without) this loan anytime soon.  It is something I am very proud to have.

Thank you for your consideration.

Discussion For This Listing
Tue, February 6, 2007
Okay i have an issue here: i bid on this loan where he states that he is a prosper lender, but i cut&paste his user ID into ecc search and nothing comes up? Is there another explaination besides him lying on a loan application and wouldn't this by definition be fraudulent? Am i required to fund a fraudulent loan request or am i totally off the mark here.
