Many lenders use the services of Mortgage Brokers to perform what is known as
the “origination” of the loan; to meet with and pre-qualify the
Borrower, verify the credit and property aspects of the loan, and then provide
it to them for funding. By performing this function, the Mortgage Brokers are
entitled to “Wholesale Interest Rate” pricing, which allows your
Mortgage Broker to always be competitive.
It does not cost more to use the services of a Mortgage Broker. In fact, most
often a Mortgage Broker can offer Borrowers better pricing than if you went to
the same lender directly.
Your Mortgage Broker is aware that the financing they provide has a third
ingredient beyond rate and fees; timely performance. The Mortgage Broker has an
intense desire and a vested interest to honor their commitment to provide the
requested financing in a timely manner, for to do so gives them the lifeblood
of their business, returning clients and referrals from satisfied Realtors and
Borrowers.
If you were to apply for a loan from a Lender directly, the Lender would do
what Lenders ALWAYS do; make you fit their program. The Mortgage Broker
receives rate quotes daily from Wholesale Lenders, both local and national,
with hundreds of different programs and loan approval criteria. Your Mortgage
Broker, as the representative of the Borrower and not the Lender, then finds
the program to meet the specific needs of the Borrower the only REAL way to get
the “Best Loan”.
Mortgage Brokers represent the Borrower, not the loan program!
Interest rates change daily, and your Mortgage Broker can provide the Borrower
the safest loan available. The Borrower can, under many programs, choose to
obtain a mortgage commitment and lock-in rate at initial application that will
insure that the interest rate being offered will be available at the time of
closing.
The Mortgage Broker protects the Borrower!
The world of mortgage finance is a world of constant change. Your Mortgage
Broker is dedicated to keeping up with such change to provide the maximum
professional service to their clients. This dedication is based on the belief
that professionalism is only achieved by having the correct blend of product
knowledge, people knowledge, and an intense commitment to customer
satisfaction.
Mortgage Brokers are Real Professionals!
