Mortgage company or bank: what is different

A bank takes deposits and makes many kinds of loans. A mortgage company does not hold checking or savings accounts. Instead, it typically funds loans through a warehouse line of credit and then sells them to investors such as Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or larger institutions.

That structure has practical effects. Because home loans are the whole business, staff tend to know program guidelines well, and many companies offer government-backed and conventional options under one roof. Because loans are usually sold, the company that closes your loan may not be the one you pay for the life of the loan.

Retail and wholesale channels

Mortgage companies reach borrowers through different channels. In the retail channel, the company works with you directly through its own loan officers, and its own staff process, underwrite and close the loan.

In the wholesale channel, the company does not meet you at all. An independent mortgage broker takes your application and submits it to the wholesale company, which underwrites and funds the loan. Some companies run both channels. Knowing which one you are in tells you who your day-to-day contact is and who makes the final credit decision. Ask early so there are no surprises later.

Local offices and New York rules to know

Deed and mortgage recording: Nassau County Clerk's Office. Your mortgage is recorded here after closing.

Mortgage lenders, brokers and loan originators serving New York are licensed by the New York State Department of Financial Services. You can confirm any company's or loan officer's license on NMLS Consumer Access before you apply.

Who you pay after closing in New Hyde Park

The company that collects your monthly payment is the servicer, and it is often not the company that made the loan. Servicing rights are bought and sold regularly. If yours change hands, federal rules require notice from the old servicer and the new one, usually around the time of the transfer.

During a transfer, a short grace period protects you if you send a payment to the old servicer by mistake. Watch for both notices, confirm the new payment address independently, and check that your escrow account for taxes and insurance carried over correctly.

Questions New Hyde Park borrowers ask about mortgage companies

What should I ask a mortgage company before applying?

Ask for the company's NMLS ID and the loan officer's NMLS ID. Ask which loan programs it offers, whether it underwrites in-house, and whether it plans to keep servicing or sell it. Ask who your main contact will be and how often you will get updates. Clear, direct answers suggest a company that communicates well.

How can I tell if a transfer notice is legitimate?

Scammers sometimes send fake transfer letters. Compare the notice with information from your current servicer, using the phone number on an existing statement rather than one in the letter. A real transfer usually comes with notices from both companies. Do not send a payment to a new address until you confirm the change through a trusted source.

What is a mortgage company?

A mortgage company is a non-bank business that originates home loans. It does not take deposits like a bank or credit union. Most mortgage companies fund loans using short-term credit lines and then sell the loans to investors. They must be licensed in each state where they lend, and their loan officers must hold individual licenses as well.

What is a loan servicer?

A loan servicer is the company that handles your loan day to day after closing. It collects your monthly payment, manages your escrow account for property taxes and insurance, sends year-end statements and answers questions. If you run into trouble making payments, the servicer is the company you contact about options. The servicer may or may not be the company that originated the loan.
