Mortgage - Go Go Internet!

Wowsers! This hunt for mortgage information is hard work! I've looked in magazines and newspapers, sought for clues in the yellow pages an even interrogated a few of Dr. Claws home loan henchmen - nothing! I found absolutely nothing except lies, tricks, and slight of hand to try to get me top take out a home loan...and then it hit me like a ton of bricks - Go Go Internet Research!

Searching for mortgage clues online

The greatest thing about online research is that is is free and everyone is there:

• I typed mortgage into a search engine and got a lit of millions of pages dedicated exclusively to mortgage information and offers.
• Doing a quick lender by lender search showed me who was offering the lowest mortgage rates on any loan type - first loans, refinancing, a second mortgage, any type of home financing I could possibly need, I found it.
• I also snooped out a definite ploy by the Mortgage Assassins ( with a little help from one of my anonymous contact) to get people into some serious financial trouble - the interest only mortgage!

I found so much, so many great financial gadgets and tricks, a mortgage calculator to help me compute toe the penny what the costs of any specific home loan will be today and twenty years form now. I don't even know why i was sent on this mission, the Internet os so packed with information. Guess I'll see you mortgage hounds later...

Back to save the day

Wait right there! While the Internet is filled with great home mortgage information, it is filled with even more disinformation means to confuse, tempt, and lead you into a financial situation you'd be better off without. For instance:

• did you know lenders are legally obliged to publish their exact ARPs, which they do only in the finest of print below their blasting advertisements for ever lower, ever more beneficial mortgage loans?
• Lenders are also obliged to divulge every detail ion their loans within two business days of your mortgage. Called the Truth in Lending act, this information includes every aspect of your loan and financial/legal obligations. It will tell you what to expect in your mortgage and where your cost might possibly increase. It also tells you the lenders side and details every fee, cost, interest, and expense. Go over this information with a lawyer before finalizing your loan agreement.

There is tons of mortgage information meant to deceive you, but the bottom line is you can find the truth with a little sleuthing on your own time. Do not be fooled into a mortgage by a lender greedy and slick enough to get you excited about a bad opportunity, and do not get caught up in the moment. Ask yourself "what will my mortgages cost me in a year, five years, ten years?" Ask your lender about refinance mortgage opportunities - if they say no refinancing for any set period of time, they are doing something that will end up costing you and benefiting them. Know your loan, and know your ways out! Now go go Internet savvy.
