Will Online Mortgage Lenders Replace Traditional Banks? - part 2

by Charles Essmeier

Variety - Some online lenders may offer a wider variety of mortgage products than local lenders. This may be especially true if you live in a small town.

Speed - Many online lenders can determine quite quickly if a borrower will qualify for a loan.

Some things, such as a property appraisal, cannot be done online, of course. Online lenders work with a variety of local appraisers in order to verify that the property in question is valued sufficiently for the desired loan. Online lenders also have staff members available to speak by telephone with customers who do not wish to provide personal or financial information over the Internet or who may have problems with the loan process that need to be discussed with a real person.

While the business of mortgage lending is not likely to be completely taken over by online lenders, the Internet has certainly added some variety and convenience to the process of shopping for a home loan. As time goes on, using the Internet for loan comparisons will probably become a standard part of shopping for a loan.
