The combination of government-mandated disclosures and vigorous competition has presented today's consumer with unprecedented levels of choice. Mortgage brokers provide the same services to consumers as do retail loan offices that typically charge the consumer an origination fee.
Brokers also provide separate and distinct services and facilities to wholesale lenders.
