Is there a catch, why are these valuable services offered at no cost? Our recommended mortgage companies only profit by closing home loans.

Of course, they always appreciate your loan referrals, however receiving them is not mandatory or a condition for any of the HomesByLender.com services, including the online ads.

What if the home buyer has another mortgage loan company or simply does not want to use the home loan services of your local recommended mortgage provider? Many who inquire on our ads or signs might fit into that category. Our mortgage professionals will never pressure anyone to use their lending services and will simply pass those prospects on to you. However, most of them will be able to provide superior service at the best rates. Many home buyers choose to utilize their services because of the quality and level of service they provide.

Why should I refer someone to a HomesByLender.com member mortgage company?

All of the HomesByLender.com recommended mortgage professionals are seasoned in the FSBO transaction and can get both the buyer and seller through the transaction. They can help you receive assistance in taking care of such necessary things not normally handled by mortgage companies. Many have relationships with licensed professionals that will assist you with the legal contracts, etc. Many offer this at no additional charge.
