Every Side of the Desk with Jay Sills, Mortgage Loan Officer

from Someone Had to Ask

In this episode, I talk to Jay Sills, a mortgage professional with over 20 years of experience. Jay discusses the differences between banks, retail lenders, and wholesale brokers. He explains that banks often have stricter underwriting and higher rates due to overhead costs, while retail lenders offer a middle ground. As a wholesale broker, Jay can offer lower interest rates and more flexible terms due to lower overhead. He emphasizes the importance of finding the right loan program for each client, highlighting his ability to shop for the best deal among multiple lenders. Jay's passion for solving clients' mortgage needs and his extensive industry experience drive his commitment to providing the best service possible.Visit my website!Disclosure: Jay Sills is my brother and the person who inspired this podcast.
