10 Reasons Homebuyers Should Use a Mortgage Broker
2010-10-14 23:40:00 There are many benefits to using a mortgage broker when you buy a home. A mortgage broker serves as the middleman between a homebuyer and the mortgage loan company. Many homebuyers think that they should just cut out the middleman and work directly with the lender themselves. However, there are a lot of good reasons for you to use a mortgage broker when you?re buying a home. Ten top reasons include: 1. Mortgage brokers know what the best loan rates are at any given time. A main reason to consider using a mortgage broker is because it can end up saving you a lot of money. Mortgage brokers do extensive research into the current rates being offered by both small and large lenders. They are able to tell you what the best rates are at any given time. This is information that you could get yourself but it would require doing extensive research. That means it doesn?t just save you money but also saves you time. 2. Some mortgage brokers will beat the prices you?ve found on your own. I...

Choosing the Right Broker
2009-08-10 07:38:00 How to find the right broker for you? Let's rule out the dartboard, first off. We can narrow your search to just 6 tasks that will help evaluate your needs ? and decide which broker fits best. * Evaluate your needs Investing experience ? Beginner, pro, or in-between? The answer tells you whether you'll need educational support (most beginners do) or more complex tools or trading choices (some pros do). Amount to invest ? Starting with $100 or $10,000? Do you plan to continue investing regularly, or invest lump sums when you have them? These answers indicate whether you'll eliminate some brokers for investment minimums. Investing strategy ? Watch the market closely and immediately jump on opportunities? Or invest slowly and steadily over time? The first requires real-time trading (buy/sell right now); the second can use dollar-based investing (more on that later). * Evaluate brokers Services offered ? Poke around their educational resources, tak...

Local or Direct Bank or Broker
2009-06-16 01:33:00 If you're looking to finance a mortgage, expect to invest some time (and maybe some angst) in the process. Many options are out there ? we'd like to help you narrow down the field to 3: local banks, direct banks and brokers. Local bankers lend the money directly without a middleman, using their bank's money, rates and terms. Direct banks work directly with homeowners (online and by phone) and are usually more flexible. Mortgage brokers work with banks and borrowers to "broker" the best deal. They don't lend their own money. Here are some other difference "makers": Local bankers may provide good rates/discounts for existing customers, can add your mortgage to a suite of the bank's products, allow you to set up online automatic payments, etc. But the loans are more conservative, the process can be arduous, possible mistakes and overcharges can appear and they're not required to disclose the "yield-spread premium" (lender's fee for a highe...

"My Dad's a Broker! Help!"
2008-10-12 17:49:00 Ever so often the Realtor on call at our office gets one of those real estate calls every agent hates. The one where a potential buyer asks a bunch of questions about a property. Not being one of those companies where we know our ABCs (Always Be Closing lines), we are glad to help. The fact is, information is all around us, so traditional floor techniques where the agent withholds information about the property until he gets the client's telephone number really don't work any more. But I digress. After we have given out this information however we have to ask the usual, albeit traditional, question - Are you working with an agent? Most homebuyers say no. But I think lately a better question I'm going to have to add my repertoire is this: Are you involved with a real estate agent in any way? Are you dating one, related to one or otherwise planning to adopt one possibly? Is there any one in your family who has just passed a real estate exam? A distant cousin somewhere? Give them a ...

Haggling over broker’s commission does cut fees
2008-08-05 09:05:00 Consumer Reports says 71% of home sellers who asked their real estate broker to cut their commission got a lower fee. Less than half (46%) of the people surveyed for the Consumer Reports National Research Center’s annual questionnaire dared ask for a cut in their broker’s commission. Those who paid 3% or less said they were just as satisfied with their service as those who paid 6% or more. “If you’re looking for an agent, shop by personal recommendation or commission split,” said Amanda Walker, Consumer Reports senior project editor.

Did anyone tell the Broker the one about the Bond?
2008-06-10 21:57:00 AAPL was down $4s after a sell the news unveiling of the new I-Phone. I took an online survey, I really am not so interested in the I-Phone. Too many I's, it seems rather narcissistic, ya know? The DOW finished the day GREEN. The Nasdaq fairly flat. As far as the rest of the market, well the AGS racked up huge gains again - POT, AGU, BG, etc. all had monster sized gains BUT the financials once again just bit the dust in a BIG BIG BIG way! You gotta believe that the news coming is only gonna get worse and that eventually in the not too distant future the stuff holding up now is gonna get hit. If you look at oil today you see the danger in being the last one holding the bag. I'm not calling a top on Oil, it looks like $150 is a done deal at some point (I did call that not so long ago), but the volatility in the commodities market will reign supreme as long as the dollar remains weak-butted and falling into a bottomless pit!
