HOME LOANS
Prospective home owners conducting online research and looking to save money by using Internet comparison shopping to bid on the lowest home loan rates, may find it useful to plan their angle of approach before navigating through the tens of hundreds of home loan sites online.First, avoid misleading sites that wish only to gather your personal information without providing an actual direct service. How to tell “good” from a “waste-of-time”? The following is a list of telltale signs indicating the likelihood that a home loan site probably has beneficial intentions:
- "Contact Information" should be readily available
- There should be an “About Us” section
- Site may offer a Spanish language version, “En Espanol”
- "Applications for Loans" should be simple, relatively quick, and ask for only pertinent personal information
- "Loan Types" usually cover home purchases, refinancing, home equity, repairs, and upgrades
- "Credit Types" should range between excellent, good, fair, and poor
Additionally, professional home loan sites tend to provide blurbs about customer satisfaction, good customer service, and secure Internet connections. Several questions that you may wish to ask about a loan site include:
- Does the site offer a “free trial” so that you can test their services before committing more time or money?
- Are you able to search for home sale opportunities on comprehensive, regularly updated lists from responsible listing services?
- Does the site offer access to live auctions?
- Regional specificity - Can you search by Zip Code, State, County, City, or Town?
Are they offering REO (Real Estate Owned) bank properties with a number of different avenues for executing an attractive deal with the lender? Such opportunities may include:
- Quick Sales to recover capital linked to non-performing assets – banks need to lend money to make money
- Easy Sales to unload long-standing REO accruing property taxes, maintenance costs, and insurance premiums
- Incentive Sales to rapidly transfer REO with property damage out of lender possession
