Frequently Asked Mortgage Questions
Using a mortgage broker means you are choosing someone independent from a bank. This can have several advantages, such as:
- Mortgage Brokers work with numerous lenders for you to choose from, all from one mortgage application, this can save you time and give you access to numerous options so you find the best option for you
- More lender options means if one says no, there are still other lenders to go to without having to start over
- A mortgage broker doesn’t work for the bank, this means their priority is finding you the best suited mortgage for you versus only offering what the bank they work for can offer
- Mortgage brokers have lenders who specialize in helping those who are self employed
- Mortgage brokers have lenders who specialize in helping those who don’t have perfect credit.
As you can see, mortgage brokers have the benefit of working with numerous lenders who they can submit your application to which means more options for you and your situation. So whether you are a first time home buyer, someone who’s self employed, someone going through a divorce, someone who’s had some credit issues along the way, or someone who needs an out of the box mortgage, a broker has access to lenders your banker doesn’t, giving you choice and options your bank can’t offer you. All from one application
The easiest way to find a mortgage broker is to ask the people in your life who they used. From there, talk to who they recommend, ask them questions about how they can help you, then choose someone you feel comfortable with. You can also check Google ratings to see what reviews they have and how recent those reviews are.
The short answer is YES! A mortgage broker does the shopping around for you, so its definitely worth calling one.

Mortgage brokers are paid by the lender you choose for your mortgage. We get paid when your mortgage closes. The exception to this is on private mortgages, when we do a private mortgage for someone the client is charged a fee, this fee is always disclosed up front. Most people do qualify outside of needing a private mortgage so for most people, using a broker is free and gives them access to numerous options, which is what is called a win win.
It’s simple. Talk to a broker and find out what options are available to you. That’s all there is too it!
