According to the Palm Beach Post, this problem has even afflicted the Republican senate candidate in Florida, Marco Rubio.
Rubio is reportedly facing foreclosure on a Tallahassee home that he co-owns with David Rivera, a Florida state lawmaker. The duo “stopped making payments in February after a dispute about the amount
once the interest-only period ended.” Rubio’s campaign has claimed that the issue has “been resolved,” even though documents do not show that the foreclosure process has been halted.
As the St. Petersburg Times pointed out, “even if the dispute is finalized, it makes Rubio vulnerable to criticism once again about his personal finances. As House Speaker, he charged $16,000 in questionable personal expenses to a state Republican Party credit card, including $135 at a Miami barbershop, and later refunded $3,000 for flights he double-billed to taxpayers and the party.”
