What does a mortgage broker do?

A mortgage broker helps you compare loans from lenders they work with. The broker can explain loan terms and help prepare your application. The lender reviews the application and makes the approval decision.

What should I compare on a mortgage quote?

Compare the loan type and term, interest rate, total monthly payment, closing costs, and estimated cash to close. Once you have written Loan Estimates, use the CFPB’s Loan Estimate guide to compare them side by side.

What does cash to close include?

Cash to close is the estimated amount you’ll need to bring to closing. It includes your down payment and closing costs, adjusted for items such as your earnest money deposit and any credits.
