Hello. I cannot find much online about this businessman except to confirm that he is/was indeed the founder and chairman of First Guaranty Mortgage Corporation. His self-published book The Story Behind the Mortgage and Housing Meltdown: The Legacy of Greed has some online presence but definitely not the kind of reliable sources that would help the subject pass WP:NAUTHOR.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete Article was created by an SPA and shows no significant independent coverage of him. Book was self-published and there's nothing to show that WP:NAUTHOR is met.  My own search didn't turn up additional sources for him, but the name is common and his coverage is dwarfed by better known individuals with the same name. Papaursa (talk) 20:45, 3 March 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete WP:VANITY. Possible WP:PAID, but pretty low quality... anyway, fails WP:NBIO. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 08:58, 4 March 2019 (UTC)
