Hi BP Community:
Looking for some advice about a mortgage pre qual for my first home on my own. I have previously owned real estate while married however I am in a new chapter and charting my own course.
Seems like lenders are reluctant to send you their rate sheets...am I missing other better questions to ask by asking for that? How can I be sure I am comparing apples to apples regarding loans. I am also a nurse and I understand there are special programs for healthcare workers however they sound like smoke and mirror tactics. Should I find myself a good mortgage broker and let them do the work or can I do my own research and fare better cutting out the middle man?
I would like to do a 15 year mortgage for my first buy and hold which I will occupy.
