Virginia Mortgage Broker FAQs
What is the difference between a mortgage broker and a lender in Virginia?
A Virginia 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 Virginia Housing programs?
Yes! Virginia offers excellent state programs through Virginia Housing (formerly VHDA) including the Plus Second Mortgage for down payment assistance up to 5%, Closing Cost Assistance grants, and FHA Plus loans. A good Virginia 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 Virginia?
Mortgage brokers have access to wholesale rates from multiple lenders, often 0.125-0.25% lower than retail bank rates. In Virginia's competitive housing markets like Northern Virginia, this can save you tens of 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.
