Texas mortgage broker helps homebuyers avoid retail mortgage rates to make homeownership more affordable and increase home purchasing power.

ALLEN, TX, Feb. 21, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The nation's top lenders offer wholesale mortgage rates, but many homebuyers are unaware and continue to pay a retail rate for their home loan. A retail rate can be 25 to 50 basis points higher than a wholesale rate which translates to a higher mortgage payment. Competitive Home Lending is determined to change that by offering wholesale rates from the nation's best mortgage lenders.

Real-time access to current wholesale mortgage rates.

"We want to make homeownership more affordable by helping homebuyers avoid retail rates that are offered by large banks and direct mortgage lenders," said Raul Hernandez of Competitive Home Lending. As an approved wholesale mortgage broker to the largest mortgage lenders, Competitive Home Lending is authorized to offer the same home loan products as major retail lenders but at a below-market rate. This offers homebuyers several benefits:

A lower monthly mortgage payment
An increase in homebuying power
Lower closing costs through lender credit incentives
Lender paid temporary rate buydowns

The difference between a retail rate and a wholesale rate can be enough to cover a large portion of the home loan's closing costs or can be used for a temporary rate buydown. Based on the average home price in the Dallas-Fort Worth metro area, homebuyers can save enough money per year to offset the cost of some utility bills or use the difference to add to their savings. A wholesale mortgage rate can increase purchasing power by over 2%. This is about a $10,000 purchase price increase and can mean the difference between a starter home or the perfect home, or it can cover the cost of adding builder upgrades on a new construction home.
