What is the difference between a Mortgage Broker & Mortgage Banker?
Mortgage brokers are federally licensed firms or individuals who sell loan programs on behalf of lenders.
Mortgage brokers facilitate your search for the most suitable mortgage product – but do not process any loans – every loan is sent to the lender (banker) for processing.
In comparison, Mortgage lenders (bankers) originates the mortgage loan, loaning you their funds and closing the loan in their name.
