Home Mortgage Lenders - How to Find A Good Mortgage Broker Online


Posted by Carrie Reeder

Here are some tips to help you find a good mortgage broker or lender online.

Mortgage lenders have set up shop online, but they aren't all reputable mortgage brokers. To find a good mortgage lender you need to compare rates and research to find reputable companies.

Mortgage Broker Services

A mortgage broker works with several lenders to find the best financing for the purchase of a home. No matter if you have perfect credit or bad credit, typically a mortgage broker can find you a lower mortgage rate than if you went with your neighborhood bank.

It is important to remember that brokers are paid by adding on a fee or point to the loan, so you should do comparison shopping even with a mortgage broker.

One Stop Shopping

Online mortgage brokers have reduced time spent comparing mortgage lenders by consolidating information about several lenders into one site. Through such mortgage sites, you only enter your information once to receive interest rates from several different mortgage lenders.

Compare Rates And Fees

While online mortgage brokers make getting quotes easy, it is important to still take the time to compare rates. Your mortgage rate will be based on current interest rates, the property's location, your credit score, and employment history. If you receive a rate quote without providing this detailed information, then you are just getting a general estimate.

General estimates for mortgage rates are still a useful tool to narrow your choices to at least three lenders. You can then apply for a true mortgage estimate with the most promising companies. With these true mortgage quotes, look at both the rates and fees to determine the actual cost of the loan.

Research Reputable Companies

Interest rates aren't the only factor to consider when comparing mortgage lenders. You should also be comfortable with the lender's reputation. Unfortunately, there is not a list of reputable mortgage lenders, but common sense can protect you from a bad mortgage lender.

First, do research on your top choices for mortgage lenders. Check out the lender's website to find their physical location, list of terms, and available customer support. Secondly, beware of too good to be true claims, such as statements that this is the only company that will finance your mortgage loan. And finally, do not sign any blank forms from a lender. You don't know what they add later.
