A friend of mine (who is also my business partner and very picky about researching) used http://www.eloan.com/home
My husband handled all the loan info on our house as well as the refinancing, so I've been kind of out of the loop on financing for the last four years.
I do know that now is the time to get a loan, considering interest rates are lower than they've been in forty years (oh geez, I sound like some commercial I've probably heard!).
If the U.S. dollar falls in Asian markets (which is something many fear happening at some time in the not-so-distant future) interest rates may sky-rocket. That said, if I was in your shoes, I would be securing your loan a.s.a.p.
I think you and I are on the same page when it comes to thinking that these are troubled times for our country (in more ways than one).
That guy, Economica, who posts on rumormillnews.com, mentioned all this quite recently and his "words of advice" including securing a long-term mortgage at the lowest interest rate possible in order to guarantee the roof over your head . . .
That may be kind of an alarmist attitude on his part - but I thought I would pass it along since I just read about it within the last week.
Good luck! Sounds like you have a lot going on!
