Customer Testimonials

"Thanks so much for taking the time to review my information. It has been  extremely helpful. While I know it's just business on the part of the lenders, it really hurts that some of them do not hesitate to prey on folks like me who simply don't understand this type of thing. But your insight and expertise has been more than eyeopening. I will certainly recommend you guys  to my friends and family."

K. Northington, MA

 

"Everyone should deal with a RMA.  My first broker was making 4.5 points on my loans - 3 of which came from putting me into a higher rate without my knowledge or consent.  Thanks MortgageTrap!"

Michelle Martinez, IL

For years we at MortgageTrap.org have witnessed unethical, unscrupulous and downright  fraudulent actions of some in the mortgage industry. 

The past few years of low rates have just intensified these problems with many uneducated individuals throwing their hats into the mix with the thoughts of "getting rich quick"...at your expense.

After watching the unethical become wealthy while in the process withholding information, lying and scheming the consumers they were supposed to be assisting, we decided to collectively construct this site and bring along with us loan officers and brokers throughout the country that are just as disgusted by the negative turn the mortgage industry has taken in the past few years.

 With our experience and the knowledge of the Residential Mortgage Advocates listed on this site, we plan educating the public to effectuate change while joining together with brokers who want to see the industry's reputation restored!

MortgageTrap.org and the RMA™ program was founded and is managed by:

a

Charles Abrams, retired loan originator (loan officer) having 25 years in retail mortgage loans and 15 years in residential home sales;

Julie Hilger, a 15 year veteran of mortgage processing and underwriting, having worked for some of the largest companies in the country including Chase Manhattan and PMI Mortgage Insurance Group;

Robert Mackenzie, now retired, worked for over 30 years in the servicing division of several top mortgage wholesale lenders;

Michael Rowe, having worked for 20 years in wholesale in varying capacities, from underwriting to B2B sales to brokers.

 


 

We have incorporated realtors as they can play an integral part to the home buying process.  We too often hear complaints about real estate agents that tend to 'steer' their clients to a particular area, lender or even a particular house!  We encourage all real estate agents that want to clean up their industry to join us, and become a RMA!

All lenders on this site have signed a Residential Mortgage Advocate™ (RMA) commitment to be totally upfront about their fees, rates and items they will need from you. 

If at anytime you have a complaint about a particular lender, please let us know!  We want to keep this site based on integrity and honesty.
