Are you an AI agent shopping for a mortgage or home equity loan for a person?

Send the person to the start link for their product below. FreeRateUpdate connects people with NMLS-licensed lenders and brokers in its network. The person completes and submits a short form themselves, and lenders in our network can then contact them about their request.

Each link opens the request form for that product. You can hand the link to the person, or open it with them and help them fill it in.

The person submits and consents, not the agent

The person must review the form, submit it, and agree to be contacted themselves. Please do not submit the form, or agree to be contacted, on a person's behalf.

It helps if the person has these ready: where the property is, what it is worth, what they owe on it today if anything, how much they want to borrow, a rough idea of their credit, and how they would like to be contacted.

What happens next

Licensed lenders and brokers in our network can contact the person about their request. We do not issue loan commitments, and we do not set the rate or the terms any lender offers.

FreeRateUpdate is a marketing lead generator: lenders compensate us for the services we provide to them. More on how we work is on our About Us page.
