One of the advantages of working with the Ethical Homes team for your mortgage is that we can originate loans from many different wholesale lenders, including most of the large retail lenders; since those lenders know that they are competing against each other for our clients business, they actually give us better pricing than they give their own in-house loan originators, and since we do have such a wide array of wholesale lenders, we also have a great deal more flexibility than most other lenders in being able to match our borrowers up with wholesale lenders whose guidelines match up with our borrowers’ specific needs.
