San Ramon, California based Mortgage Banker Brian Linchey reveals 3 things you should watch out for when shopping for home-finance products on the Internet.

San Ramon, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/08/2012 -- San Ramon, California Based Mortgage Banker Reveals 3 Things Lenders Don't Want You to Know About Shopping for a Mortgage Online

Anyone who's even remotely interested in shopping for a home loan has probably paid attention to all those commercials on TV touting the ease of using any of a variety of Internet services to compare mortgage offers from the comfort of your home. You may even have tried a couple of them yourself. But Brian Linchey, Managing Partner with Mason-McDuffie Mortgage Corporation, says San Ramon, California residents need to watch out when trying to use the Internet to do the heavy lifting for them.

"Sometimes, these Internet services might work fairly well for certain people." "But the one-size-fits-all approach they offer is going to leave a lot of people with loans that aren't the best for them, or even worse, they may be shut out of the process altogether."

Brian Linchey says the problem with these services is that they never really get to know anything about your financial situation other than your credit history and income level. "So basically what winds up happening is that you're reduced to a number to them. And if they don't like whatever that number is, you're out of luck."

Here are three things you should watch out for when shopping for home-finance products on the Internet – things most online mortgage sites hope you ignore:

*Do they take the time to find out about your unique situation, or are you just a cyber-borrower in their eyes? Most of these sites simply don't have the manpower to individually work with every borrower. So a lot of times you wind up with a bad loan simply because there was no one to check if they could have gotten you a better deal.

*What do they offer people in special financial circumstances – such as the self-employed or people with damaged credit? Most of these sites don't even want to work with you unless you meet their stringent criteria.

*Do they provide advice to help when choosing between loan products? Most sites simply gather offers, throw them in your lap, and pressure you to choose between them. Unless you're a pretty experienced mortgage pro, deciding on the best offer can be difficult, if not impossible.

So, what's the solution? Use the Internet to educate yourself and then work with a real human being. You may not have thought about "old-fashioned" methods of finding the best deal, such as working with a mortgage banker. "But for anyone who values a real person sitting down with you and working through the process, there's no better option," says Linchey.

California based Mortgage Banker, Brian Linchey, reveals mortgage refinancing secrets at a new web site designed to give California residents all the facts about mortgage refinancing so they can make an educated decision when obtaining a mortgage. The site is full of free reports, a home buying guide and free mortgage calculators.

San Ramon, CA -- (ReleaseWire) -- 02/02/2012 -- It seems like everyone in California is jumping on the mortgage refinancing bandwagon. Maybe you're thinking about it yourself? After all, with rates as low as they are, the promise of lowering your monthly payments, sometimes significantly, is a great attraction for many homeowners.

"With refinancing as popular as it is right now, California residents have to be even more careful about shopping for the best loan," says Brian Linchey, a San Ramon, California based mortgage consultant. "Even the most attractive offer can wind up being a disaster once you realize how much the loan is really costing you."

So before you sign on the dotted line, there are a few things you should know about the way refinancing works so you don't make a mistake that could wind up costing you big time.

Linchey offers these tips when considering refinancing:

* Your credit score counts... big time. If you've had credit problems in the past like a bankruptcy, it might make sense to wait a while for your credit score to recover before trying to refinance. Most lenders make it hard for people with less than perfect credit to get the best deals. But, again, if you choose to let an expert like a mortgage banker get involved in the process, they can often find loan options that most homeowners didn't even know existed - which can save you thousands over the long haul.

* Consolidating unsecured debt with a refinance loan can be a dangerous idea. You may not be in financial trouble now, but if in a few years things change, instead of simply missing a credit card payment or two, you'll now be in danger of losing your home as well.

* You should get a significantly lower rate for refinancing to make sense. Don't rush to refinance unless it's truly worth your while. If you're working with a mortgage banker rather than going it alone, you can be assured that they're bringing you the best offers out there. If you're going it alone, you'll have to do the legwork for yourself.
