I’ve been writing this column for several years now and I’ve covered a wide range of topics from looking for the best locations for a new home to how to make sure you have everything in order to apply for a mortgage once you’ve found that dream space.
However, I talked with a reader the other day who said they’ve never read anything I’ve written about what is a mortgage broker and what it is we do that places us in the best position to serve our clients. I looked through the blog archive and couldn’t find anything recent on that topic, so here’s a few good reasons why you need to use a mortgage broker.
- We run a professional and knowledgeable service. We make it our business to understand what products work best for our clients and, of course, that includes the rates and terms. We also make it our business to explain everything you need to know about the entire process from start to finish in simple, easy to grasp terms so you’ll have a full understanding.
- We also offer those little extras that make a difference. If you’re wondering, ‘What mortgage can I afford?’ or something similar, we offer the time and expertise to walk you through the steps you need to take.
- We only deal with credible lenders and we have some of the best connections to the most reputable lenders so there’s nothing to risk when you use us.
Finally, when you’re asking what is a mortgage broker, the last advantage we’ll touch on might be the most enticing. You can use our services at no cost to you. We get paid by the financial institution that gets your business and mortgage.
