Better Rates and Better Service
Mortgage Tech’s Better Rates and Better Service slogan has evolved over our years in business.
Mortgage Tech Home Finance employs a powerful technology platform that enables our loan officers to electronically search and compare the mortgage rates and products of dozens of lenders. Empowered with this information, you the borrower have the choice to pick what lender, rate, and program is right for you.
We know that each customer has specific needs, so here at Mortgage Tech, we strive to meet those specific needs with quality service and individual attention. We pride ourselves in giving you the mortgage information, loan options and convenient assistance you’re looking for.
Know before you go – Free Pre-Qualification
It’s a great idea to know how much of a home you can afford before starting the quest. Call and speak to an experienced Mortgage Loan Officer to discuss your situation, get your questions answered and find out the price range you should be looking in.
Know before you Refi – Free Pre-Qualification
Refinancing your home is usually a very big decision, and rightfully so. We have seen many home owners refinance their current mortgage with a new mortgage that was not optimal to their situation. Product type, loan amount and term, among other variables are crucial when refinancing. We at Mortgage Tech will evaluate your situation in depth to answer these questions and come up with the best solution for your individual needs. Also, for New York properties, we are mortgage consolidation experts. We will determine the savings by doing a mortgage consolidation and discuss if it makes sense or not. In many cases you can save thousands of dollars by consolidating, however many MLO’s will not even mention it due to the increased paperwork and complexity.
Reliable Customer Service
The people at Mortgage Tech are real people like you. When you call we pick up the phone and answer your questions. No rockets and no mortgage buttons. We know the seriousness of home financing and the magnitude of it in your life. That’s why we treat you and your mortgage loan as our number one priority. Speak to real people with the experience that’s needed to get the job done.
