The Broker Advantage

Why Our Rates Crush the Competition

Big lenders publish "teaser" rates with fine print that makes them impossible to get. We publish real rates for real scenarios.

Typical Big Lender

"Advertised" Rate: Looks Good Until You Read the Fine Print

Requires 40% Down Payment

Who has $200,000 cash lying around on a $500K home?

3 Discount Points Required

That's $15,000 upfront on a $500K loan just to "buy" the rate

800+ Credit Score Assumed

Only ~20% of Americans have an 800+ score

Retail Overhead = Higher Costs

Paying for TV ads, branch offices, and fat executive bonuses

"The rate you see advertised? You'll never actually get it unless you're putting down nearly half the home's value AND paying $15K+ in points."

What You See is What You Get

20% Down Payment

ZERO Discount Points

The rate you see is the rate you get—no money upfront

740+ Credit Score

Realistic assumption for qualified buyers (we have lower credit options too)

Wholesale Pricing

Direct access to 50+ lenders means the best rates, period

"Why pay more? Our rates are published at 0 points and realistic assumptions. This is what real borrowers actually qualify for."

The Real Cost Comparison

Big Lender "Advertised" Rate

6.125%

+ 3 points ($15,000)

+ 40% down ($200,000)

Total Upfront: $215,000

VS

LoansByEmmett Rate

6.75%

+ 0 points ($0)

+ 20% down ($100,000)

Total Upfront: $100,000

You save $115,000 upfront by working with a broker who publishes honest rates.

Even with a slightly higher rate, you'd need to stay in the home 15+ years to "break even" on those points. Most people sell or refinance within 7 years.

What Makes Our Mortgage Rates the Best?

Getting the best mortgage rate isn't just about the number—it's about the total cost of your loan.

Zero Points Pricing

Many lenders advertise low rates but charge 2-3 "discount points" to get them. Each point is 1% of your loan—on a $400,000 loan, that's $4,000-$12,000 out of your pocket just to get the advertised rate.

Our rates include zero points. What you see is what you actually get. Use our mortgage calculators to see the difference.

Wholesale Access

As a mortgage broker, we access wholesale rates from 50+ lenders—the same rates big banks pay. We shop for you and pass the savings along, rather than marking up to retail pricing.

Result: Lower rates than going direct. We often beat the rates from the same lenders you'd approach on your own.

Transparent APR Comparison

The APR (Annual Percentage Rate) tells the true story. It includes the interest rate plus all fees. A 6.0% rate with $8,000 in fees has a higher APR than a 6.125% rate with $0 in fees.

Always compare APR, not just rate. Our rate sheet shows both so you can make informed decisions.

Expert Guidance

The "best" rate depends on your situation. Buying? Refinancing? Investment property? VA eligible? Each scenario has different optimal loan programs. We help you find the right fit.

20+ years of experience means we know which programs work best for each borrower profile. Explore our first-time buyer or VA loan guides.
