uk - try moneysupermarket.com but with this and all sites similar be aware that they aren't necessarily neutral - so you might not be seeing all offers.

For impartial advice check out the motely fool website, and also Martin Lewis's moneysavingexpert.com

I just went through this torturous process and can tell you that there is no "one stop shop" for mortgages and refinancing. You really need to call a bunch of different lenders and speak to a loan officer. What is advertised on the web or on TV is rarely the full story. By calling, I have gotten offers that cost more than the ad said and less!

Call each lender individually is my advice. Stick with well-known lenders too (big banks and community banks, for example). In my case, a community bank beat all the other offers.

this is true. the places that offer one stop loan shopping are brokers which means they take a quoted rate from a big bank and tack on a little extra..thats how they make their money.stick with the big players and your closing cost will be lower too because alot of them have their own title co, appraisers, etc.

Just post a link to an Adobe file containing a signed promissory note naming all RHP subscribers as the "lender/beneficiary", we will review and get back to you. Could you scan your title as well? Be sure to include your bank account and routing number so we can fund your loan quickly.

Thank you for your inquiry.

Be very careful who you give your number and email to. It's a nightmare when they call and call and call. For months.

However:

the link I provided above is an information website which is not selling mortgages nor is it affiliated with any particular mortgage lender.

The situation in the UK is different to the US scenario too.

My advice is to get yourself a decent, fully independent mortgage broker. Yes the broker will no doubt take his cut sooner or later but in many cases a broker can access discounted offers that will not be available to the public so you are likely to end up better off anyway.

If you approach a broker this does not stop you from doing your own research at the same time - just to keep him/her honest...
