Types of Mortgage and Advantages of Mortgage Brokers

Mortgage can be defined as a loan in which the house of the borrower is taken as the collateral. Mortgage is different compared to regular loans, in regular loans the lender checks the credit history, saving and income of the borrower and provides the loan. The concept of collateral exists in mortgage loan as it involves a huge amount of money.  In mortgage if a borrower fails to pay back the loan amount then his or her house is taken over by the lender or the bank. Banks are considered to be traditional mortgage lenders. There are mortgage brokers who talks through different lender to provide the best deal.  Mortgage broker in Manchester is well known as they save time of the borrower with different facilities.  They go through the market thoroughly to provide the best deal to the borrower; they provide quick decisions on important matter on behalf of the borrower and they also take care of all the required formalities and paper work for a mortgage.

A mortgage advisor involves works like selling FSA regulated products and providing best mortgage advice to the clients. Mortgage advisors in Manchester are well known as research has proven that they provide the best solutions and advices related to mortgage. Now I will discuss about some advantages that are provided by the mortgage brokers and advisors.

  • Saves the work of the Borrower: Broker and advisors have a regular contact with different lenders and they also have a good understanding of the present market. They can easily differentiate between a good and a bad lender; bed lenders include those people who have onerous payment terms in their mortgage contracts. They contact the lenders and provide the best of them to the borrower, this saves the work of the borrower. It is advised to the borrower to do some research by themselves and not to depend on the brokers or the advisors completely. The borrowers can use mortgage calculators that will help them to compare different mortgage rates and will provide extra knowledge about the condition of the market.
  • Brokers have more Access: There are some lenders in the market who work with a specific broker and rely on the broker to bring suitable clients or borrowers. These brokers can get special rates from a particular lender as they have known each other for many years. So this extra access of the broker can become a boon for the borrower as he or she can get the mortgage at a special rate.
  • Saves some Fees Money: There are different fees that are involved in taking a new mortgage or working with a completely new lender. These fees include application fees, appraisal fees and origination fees. In some special cases trusted brokers are able to cut down some of the above mentioned fees from the lender, so with this advantage a borrower save a huge amount of money.

After saying this, now I will discuss about different types of mortgages.
