Looking for lender referrals.

What are the major differences between using a bank or a broker for a jumbo mortgage? Also, if anyone has an recommendations for a good person/company to use, we’d appreciate it. I asked for referrals several years ago on here but it’s been a while and things change.

Thanks!

I’m a big fan of shopping around. But you need to shop more than rates – different folks will charge different amounts for various loan origination fees, escrow fees, doc fees, appraisals… So you need to get the whole financial cost to compare.

That said – the last time I refi’d was with a piggington poster – HLS. (You can pm him through the system. He was great to work with and gave me a much better deal than I was being quoted from my credit union and from my bank. Service was excellent, the close happened at my house with a notary showing up to have me sign off on everything. So Sheldon (HLS) gets a thumbs up from me.

Thanks for the referral – I will contact Sheldon. Would love any other referrals as we will definitely be speaking to more than one person.
