3 tools you must have with you when shopping for a mortgage

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

Don’t get stranded with out these 3 tools when shopping for a mortgage:

1. bankrate.com*

2. The Better Business Bureau

3. Your state’s regulatory department(s)

The star for bankrate.com is that there are questions to the accuracy of the rates; and some reports of people offering too good to be true rates and programs to attract buyers.  I believe that is all resolved now.  In any event, you can still get a general ball-park idea of where you should be in terms of interest rate by visiting their site.  Disclosure: My company does NOT advertise on bankrate.com.
