I needed to post an piece of mortgage advise

Don;t believe everything your loan officer tells you. If he gives you a good faith estimate, have it double check with another completing mortgage broker that way you will know if you're getting a good deal. If the broker you show it to, smiles and send you on your way then you know you have a trust worthy loan offficer and maybe a good friend.

Word of wisdom: check around

  1. Shopping around is always good. I always recommend that my clients contact a few lenders that I work with as well as a couple they find on their own. And once they see who they feel the most comfortable with and who can provide them with the best deal then they pick who they want to use. Shopping around is simply educating yourself as to what your options are, and then making the best educated decision.
