who do you use, why, and what lists bring you the most credible leads?

(I hope this is the correct place to post)In my years, of small time REI, I have never found a broker /lender that I would use again.

Yet they act like it is a private club of just friends and family.To be more to the point...Some are in a service role providing something to the public (RE agent, book seller, mortgage broker, home inspector, REO portfolio bird dog, what ever).

My real estate broker wanted me to take title with my wife.

My parents decided to tell the broker that they will think about it.

That's banks, mortgage brokers and the like.If they require a year's property taxes and insurance to be paid, that's financed too.

I have a contact with a local broker who specializes in dealing with REO in the local market.

As many of you may have seen, our servers crashed this morning.

The provision would raise $2 billion in additional taxes over the next decade, according to an estimate by the congressional Joint Committee on Taxation.Industry trade groups including the National Association of Realtors, the National Association of Home Builders and the Mortgage Brokers Association, which want homeowners to be protected from taxes on forgiven debt, support the measure.

Definitely talk to a local bank and if you want use a mortgage broker who has access to more national funding.
