I agree. I just obtained a mortgage last fall. I was thinking of going through one the online mortgage companies to save a 1/2 point. However, when I realized how much personal information I would be giving out to strangers over the Internet, I decided not to go ahead with it. The 1/2 point doesn't really matter now, I just paid off my mortgage with stock market earnings. :-)

disagree... went into my living yesterday my wife was watching some shopping channel ...instead of just selling stuff i guess they also do some regular programming...they were doing a 1 hour program on online real estate...had some of the big companies on with interviews and were talking about how convenient and easy it is for companies like century 21 to have their brokers work with clients locally over the net and how much money and time it saves their clients...mortgages follow suit...and considering the rate in which more americans do not go out of the their front door anymore,this will only increase...we trust a computer to work out the rates anyway,the only difference is we do not have to listen to the putz telling us the computer is never wrong...

Bouf, << most people don't want to do mortgages over the Internet..that is the one loan that most consumers prefer to do in person, with their local banker>> You must not own a home,or have never gotten a mortgage.If I knew that I can save money getting a mortgage online,I would kiss my "local banker" goodbye. The point of investing in an Internet stock,is to find a company that is either first in their field or is making many connections online to spread their product.I don't think the number of shares outstanding will make much of a difference for a company that has the potential for getting even a small share of the 60 billion home mortgage business.With the new CEO,and their consolidation of their online sights under Finet.com,I think FNHC is ready to make inroads into the home mortgage business. IMO, Manny T.
