Using a Mortgage Broker vs. a Bank
Some or all of the mortgage lenders featured on our site are advertising partners of NerdWallet, but this does not influence our evaluations, lender star ratings or the order in which lenders are listed on the page. Our opinions are our own. Here is a list of our partners.
Whether it's better to work with a mortgage broker or to get a home loan directly from a bank depends on your financial situation and your preferences. For example, if you might have trouble qualifying for a mortgage or you place a high value on convenience, a mortgage broker may be worthwhile for you. On the other hand, working directly with a bank might make more sense if you’re comfortable crunching some numbers and you want to feel more in control of the homebuying process.
