What to look for when shopping around for home equity loans?
Any advice on what to look for when shopping around for home equity loans?
Are there referral commissions?
I have a couple of individuals looking for a home equity loan … I told them I’d look into it for them. I’d like to find a quality vendor, but if referrals commissions are paid out, I’d like to negotiate for that too.
How do I figure out what is a “great deal”?
PS. I’ll happily take general replies but this would be specific to Calgary, Alberta, Canada.
If you were in the US I’d say caretul you may be stepping into legal problems.
If you are a first time borrower of a home equity loan it is imperative that you have a checklist of essential questions that you need to ask each and every lender. The answers to these questions will provide a valuable reference to base your comparisons on. What’s the interest rate? Knowing this is crucial. The interest rate will determinepercentage by which the adjustable rate will change. What is the Annual Percentage Rate or APR? The APR on the home equity loan will determine the yearly payment you will need to make towards this.The higher the payment in terms of points, the lower is the interest rate.
You have to have a mortgage license to collect a commission. It is not legal to be involved without a license.
