A Startling 85% of Homebuyers in Texas Overpay for Their Mortgage Rate

A Startling 85% of Homebuyers in Texas Overpay for Their Mortgage Rate

Competitive Home Lending is committed to increasing awareness that could save the average homebuyer thousands of dollars on their home loan.

The top ten mortgage lenders make up over 47% of the market share. Aside from excellent customer service and great mortgage loan programs, these leading companies extend lower wholesale mortgage rates through authorized mortgage brokers such as Competitive Home Lending. Despite the cost-saving opportunity these mortgage lenders offer through lower-cost local mortgage broker channels, less than 30% of borrowers benefit from the savings. ‘It is our responsibility to extend the opportunity to make home ownership more affordable to families buying homes in Texas,’ says mortgage broker Raul Hernandez. Based on the average home price in the Dallas area, paying a retail mortgage rate can cost homeowners up to $30,000 more in interest payments over the life of the loan.

Current mortgage rates are always posted to easily compare mortgage rates and encourage buyers to shop for the best lender. ‘We offer the exact same home loans directly from the nation’s best lenders but at a lower mortgage rate that is not padded with the added cost of loan officer commission,’ says Hernandez.

Current Mortgage Rates

Working directly with a mortgage broker eliminates the cost of paying a loan officer’s commission that adds to the cost of homeownership. However, it is difficult for homebuyers to find a mortgage broker in a market saturated with loan officers. The NMLS consumer access directory is a great way to verify if the loan officer handling your home loan is the company’s broker.

Real estate agents looking for ways to add value to the service they offer their buyers are partnering with Competitive Home Lending. The list of real estate agents learning about the benefits a lower mortgage rate offers their clients is growing. Our network of real estate agents knows lower mortgage rates attract more buyers due to the lower mortgage payments. Agents have been able to show higher-priced homes to their clients thanks to our lower rates. This gives agents an advantage in a competitive market.

Why Choose a Mortgage Broker Instead of a Bank?

When many people begin the loan process, they head to their local bank. However, that’s not always the best idea for your financial future. Banks often have limited options when it comes to getting a loan, and you may not get the best rates, or you might not qualify at all. See why a mortgage broker like Competitive Home Lending might be a better choice.

More Options = Better Rates

Banks can only offer you the loans they provide. A mortgage broker can help you instantly compare loans from many institutions so you can get the best rates and lowest closing costs. This allows you to see all your options and choose the best loan.

Lower Rate = More Home for Your Money

A lower rate means more than just saving money on interest. It also means you have more purchasing power. This can mean a larger home that better fits your needs. Often, it can be the difference between buying a “starter home” and your dream home.

Fewer Closing Costs = Less Cash to Close

Closing costs can eat up a considerable portion of your down payment. When you choose a mortgage broker, we can also help you find loans with minimal closing costs. This not only saves you money but also allows you to offer a larger down payment and make your offer more attractive to sellers.

The First Step to Buying Your Home Is Getting Preapproved

If you’re considering purchasing a home, most realtors will want you to get preapproved before you begin looking at homes. Being preapproved also allows you to determine exactly how much home you can afford, and a pre-approval letter can make your offer more attractive to sellers. Pre-approval shows that you are serious and have already taken steps towards securing financing.

During the pre-approval process, we will look at your credit score, current income, buying power, down payment, and outstanding debt to determine how much money lenders might be willing to lend you for a mortgage. If you qualify, we can issue you a pre-approval letter so you can begin searching for your new home.

Why Choose Competitive Home Lending?

When you choose Competitive Home Lending, you can trust that you are in good hands. We have over 20 years of experience and are licensed to operate in Texas. We’ve helped thousands of families get the financing they need to get into homes they love.
