MORTGAGE LENDERS

Unless you will be paying cash, your 1st step when looking for a home is to get Pre-Qualified for a Mortgage.  Doing so enables you to know the payments you can afford and therefore the price range of homes you should be looking at.  Along with your offer to the Seller, you will also be required to submit a Letter of Pre-Qualification from a licensed Mortgage Lender. 
Below is a list of Mortgage Lenders & Insurance Providers who have been used by some of my clients. You are encouraged to always speak to them personally, so that you can adequately compare their rates and services.  This list is provided as a courtesy.
