Discount Mortgage Broker
A discount mortgage broker is a brokerage that is compensated by the lender rather than by the
borrower. This is made possible by payment of a 'rebate' from the lender to the broker.
Keep in mind that lenders make their money not from fees but from the interest you pay on
the morgage. So lenders will pay a discount broker according to the interest rate they secure
for the borrower. The higher the interest rate charged, the higher the 'rebate' to the broker.
The lower the interest rate, the lower the 'rebate' is to the broker.
This can be advantageous to borrowers that will not be in a loan for more than a few years as
it keeps there are no closing costs. However, your interest rate will be higher than if you
paid some closing costs. What's the right balance for you? It really depends on your situation
and the terms that you are being offered.
