Smarter Internet Research; How To Find The Best Mortgage Refinancing Program - part 2

4. They may post current interest rates for either their mortgage refinancing or second mortgage programs. 5. They may have an "about us" or staff directory page.

Lead Seller - Lead sellers are in business to gather your information and then sell it to a mortgage company. They are not mortgage refinancing companies and do not make loans. The majority of these sites use some variation of "simplify the mortgage shopping process by completing 1 form and have up to 4 mortgage companies compete for your business". While these sites can certainly deliver as promised, you should also consider the following if you are completing one of their forms:

1. Are they using a secure connection to collect and transmit your information?

2. Do you know where your information is going?

3. Are you sure they will only sell your information 4 times. As with many industries, this industry has its share of dishonesty. The lead sellers are paid each time they sell your name, so some do not stop at 4 as promoted. From personal experience working on the mortgage side of business, I have spoken with clients whose names have been sold 15 - 20 times. The end result is a phone that keeps ringing and frustration.

4. Be careful filling out more than one of these types of forms. Completing more than 1 will likely inundate you with telephone calls and emails.

When shopping for a mortgage refinancing or second mortgage, it is wise to speak with more than 1 company. If, during your search, you cannot find at least 2 or 3 mortgage company websites that you like, you might consider completing a lead aggregators form. Just remember that you do not want to end up with information overload.
