Thanks.
Yes, they are in Flanders.
I am rate shopping right now and American Federal is offering the best rate with the lowest closing costs. However, they are a smaller, NJ only lender and they don't service the loan, hence my hesitation.

her loan has been sold several times in the past year, but it hasn't been a problem - it's pretty standard.
Try Loan Search. For us perfect credit with 20% down, AmFed was not competitive.
Seems like a bad time to be looking right this second as rates are >6 and they fluctuate quite a bit, but have been below 6 forever up until this week.
Kalim2008,
Thanks. Were you generally happy with your mortgage "experience" with them? I.e. did everything go smoothly at closing and no surprise fees etc?
Did you check LoanSearch.com? They are a NJ only lender neutral broker. They ask basically for your name address and loan amount, where you are buying, how much you have down and your credit score, BUT you will not need to provide your social security number and so they are not running your credit. They take your info and tell you the rate and the bank. It will cost you nothing, there is no obligation so there is no point in not checking to see what they have to say.

Why do you care who services the loan? As long as the terms and closing costs are acceptable, why does it matter who you end up writing the check out to every month? Its not unusual for most companies to sell loans several times, and it doesn't affect the payment amount.
