Is it worth paying a mortgage broker?

Using a mortgage broker provides you with a high level of service at normally a lower cost. They shop around to multiple banks on your behalf in order to find you the best rates and closing costs available. As such your fees may be lower than other options making it absolutely worth it to pay for their services. In most cases the banks they are contracted with will pay the mortgage broker commission meaning you won’t actually be paying any origination fees to them directly.
