Is it really "easy credit"? My coworker just got done with getting a mortgage in San Mateo and it really seemed like a long drawn out processes with significant hurdles in terms of paperwork and documentation along with a requirement to put down $300k on a $1mil house.

I've been told by several people that it is significantly harder to get a mortgage today than in 2007/2008.

Perhaps he was making it harder than it really is but a mortgage is the hardest consumer credit to get.
