Finance:Wholesale mortgage lenders

From HandWiki

A wholesale mortgage lender is a bank or other lending institution that funds and sometimes services mortgage loans, but uses independent mortgage brokers for the initial interaction with the client,[1] including the application process.

Description

The mortgage broker originates the loan; however, the funding of the loan as well as the decision on the creditworthiness of the loan is handled by the wholesale lender.[2] The name of the wholesale lender is typically appears on the loan documents, while the broker acts as an agent for the lender and collects a fee.[3] Broker fees are sometimes collected by adding onto the rate offered by the wholesale lender, with the difference between the broker rate and the lower lender rate[4] going to the broker.
