vs.
Mortgage Broker
Key Points
Collectively, Mortgage Bankers and Mortgage Brokers are called “Lenders”
Lenders offer mortgages or loans (AKA “Products”)
Mortgage Bankers work for their respective bank; they work with their bank’s products
Mortgage Brokers are more flexible, surfing all available products — from the big banks you know to private lenders you don’t
