7 Ways to Spot a Shady Mortgage Broker

· Encourages you to falsify your application information to get the loan.

· Urges you to borrow more than you need.

· Pushes you to accept payment terms that you can't realistically meet.

· Fails to give you the required disclosures (e.g., APR, rescission rights, etc.).

· Shows up at closing with a totally different loan product than you agreed to.

· Asks you to sign blank forms. ("It'll speed things up. We'll fill in the blanks later, trust me.")

· Denies you copies of documents you signed.
