Who's Better? Bank or Broker
Rita Cousins Senior Mortgage Advisor • October 12, 2022

The broker works for you. The bank doesn’t. The right mortgage is a critical factor determining long-term savings.
The value of a professional mortgage broker comes from having someone who objectively works for you and is not limited to mortgage product offerings from one source; like a bank. Advice on choosing the right mortgage option considers interest rate, payment privileges, payment penalties, long term savings and much more. Take alook at the differences between my services & the bank’s services.
