Will you really make a loan to a bad borrower?

I am an equity based lender. Would I be comfortable making a loan to a borrower who
never pays anyone back? It all comes down to the property...

What I have to consider as a potential lender on every deal: If the borrower defaults, can I re-sell the property relatively quickly, and for how much can I sell it?

Answering this question is the "bottom line" in considering any potential loan I do.
