3 Key Advantages of Working with a Local, Independent Mortgage Broker
Many mortgage lenders and banks showcase their low prices and advertise low rates to attract customers.
While this is not especially surprising, what IS often surprising to home buyers are the added fees, delays, and other complications of working with a big bank or nationwide lender.
These additional expenses and other problems often end up costing home buyers MORE than they had expected.
So while big banks and lenders may claim that they are the best in the business by touting their low prices, for many home buyers working with a local, independent mortgage broker is actually the better choice.
