Consumers now have access to a greater collection of specialized mortgage calculators and online financial tools than ever before through ERATE’s website.
Their vast yet easy-to-use collection of tools covers everything from calculating mortgage payments, emphasizing different loan variables, to debt consolidation.
“ERATE is not just about providing great rates and a high level of customer service,” said Jeff Howard, CEO of ERATE (http://www.erate.com). “Our goal is to provide consumers with information and resources they can use to manage and meet their real estate financing objectives. ERATE hopes to offer relevant, useful information that puts them in the driver’s seat when making these important financial decisions. The consumer must be in control in order to make choices that best meet their own financial needs and interests.”
