Guest the jp's Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Hi, Any opinions about whether it's best to go with a mortgage broker or direct with a bank, when fixing up a mortgage? Thanks, the jp's Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo&Rich Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 Hi, we used a mortgage broker as they do a search of lenders and all the different home loans available, which would take me forever, to work out the best deal. With our broker (Aussie) there was no obligation to use their services if we chose to go elsewhere, and no fee to us. They had a flat fee, charged to whichever lender we went with, so as not to favour any particular lender for a higher broker fee we were told. I'm not sure if all brokers check with all lenders, so maybe try a couple of brokers to see who comes up with the best deal? As my hubby was recently self employed, we had very little choice of lenders, and assumed we would have to get a low-doc loan; this was not the case, which we would probably not have found out without an experienced person working on our behalf. Best of luck, Jo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
