Since virtually all financial services companies, including
brokerage firms,
have entered the
mortgage
market, you have a wide variety of potential lenders to choose from.
Banks and credit
unions. You may get a better rate if you
have a checking or savings account there.
Developers. Most
make arrangements with lenders to get financing
for you if you’re interested in their properties.
Mortgage bankers. They
may offer lower rates or make qualifying easier
than banks do.
Mortgage brokers. For
a fee, they’ll help you find the best deal
or get a mortgage when you’re having difficulty.
