Kentucky Mortgage Broker FAQs
What is the difference between a mortgage broker and a lender in Kentucky?
A Kentucky mortgage lender offers only their own loan products at their set rates. A mortgage broker is an independent professional who shops your loan across multiple wholesale lenders to find the best rate and terms. Brokers access wholesale pricing not available directly to consumers, often 0.125-0.25% lower than retail rates.
Can a mortgage broker help with Kentucky Housing Corporation programs?
Yes! Kentucky offers excellent state programs including Kentucky Housing Corporation (KHC) loans, Down Payment Assistance (DAP) up to $10,000, and the Affordable Housing Trust Fund. A good Kentucky mortgage broker knows which lenders are approved for these programs and can help you qualify.
Why should I use a mortgage broker instead of my bank in Kentucky?
Mortgage brokers have access to wholesale rates from multiple lenders, often 0.125-0.25% lower than retail bank rates. In Kentucky's affordable housing market, this can save you thousands over your loan term. Brokers also match your specific situation with lenders who specialize in that loan type.
What is the $1,000 Best Price Guarantee?
If you close a loan with any lender for a lower combination of interest rate, fees, and monthly mortgage insurance, we'll send you a $1,000 check. Simply share your Loan Estimate so we can compare—if we can't beat it and you close with the competitor, show us the Final Closing Disclosure within 10 days and we'll pay you $1,000.
