Faster. Easier. When it comes to providing homebuyers with a mortgage experience that leads to referrals and can grow your business, no three words resonate louder. And that\u2019s precisely what an independent mortgage broker \u2013\u2013 which you can find in your area at <a href=\"https:\/\/findamortgagebroker.com\/?utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=real_trends_april_2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>FindAMortgageBroker.com<\/strong><\/a> \u2013\u2013 can help you deliver to buyers time and time again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In a study conducted by United Wholesale Mortgage, 90% of real estate agents who worked with an independent mortgage broker would recommend one to their buyers in the future. And with the purchase season upon us, it\u2019s important to understand the many advantages of partnering with a local mortgage broker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can, of course, obtain a mortgage through a big bank or mega retail lender that often results in months of frustration because the buyer is forced to fit into one of a pre-ordained set of turn times, guidelines and limited product options. Such is never the case with an independent mortgage broker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They gather all of your buyer\u2019s necessary paperwork and work directly with the mortgage lender who best fits your buyer throughout the entire purchase process. This course often closes loans in 15 to 20 days \u2013 two to three times faster than the 45- to 60-day turn times typically delivered by retail lenders.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since independent mortgage brokers aren\u2019t committed to any one lender, they\u2019re able to shop around and compare multiple lenders to find the best possible loan product and rate that match your borrower\u2019s particular needs. That is a big advantage over retail, as it allows mortgage brokers to compare lower wholesale rates from a variety of lenders to ensure your buyer gets the lowest possible monthly payment that suits their situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another decided advantage that independent mortgage brokers have over their retail counterparts is support from industry-leading technology that allows buyers and real estate agents alike to experience a smooth process from the initial mortgage application through closing. From applying online to tracking their loan, buyers are afforded a transparency that reinforces clear communication between you, your buyer and the wholesale lender throughout the entire process, making for a simpler and seamless experience for all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Which leads us to banker\u2019s hours. Frustrated when you and your buyer can only reach your loan officer between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., Monday through Friday? Not sure why their time is more valuable than yours? Independent mortgage brokers are not limited by such time constraints and are always ready to go the extra mile for your homebuyer. Their schedules are flexible, allowing you to schedule appointments at times and locations that are most convenient for you and your clients. For an independent mortgage broker, it\u2019s all about building relationships that start by respecting one another\u2019s time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The benefits touched on in this article are only the first of many reasons why you should consider partnering with an independent mortgage broker in your area. They are true advocates of your buyer and are committed to you and your buyer\u2019s best interests from the very beginning. Interests that will undoubtedly lead to referrals and help grow your business. \u00a0Find one today at <a href=\"https:\/\/findamortgagebroker.com\/?utm_source=newsletter&amp;utm_medium=email&amp;utm_campaign=real_trends_april_2021\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>FindAMortgageBroker.com<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>FindAMortgageBroker.com<\/em><\/strong><em>, powered by UWM, is a search engine created to help you search for a local independent mortgage broker you can partner with to provide a home buying experience that\u2019s cheaper, faster and easier.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Your mortgage broker partner will provide you and your buyer a variety of loan options and approval opportunities, turn-times well below the industry standard, access to wholesale rates that can lead to lower payments and a digital experience from application to closing.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheaper.
