Alaska Mortgage Brokers
In Alaska, mortgage brokers are not licensed or regulated. Brokers without a
physical presence within the state don't even need to apply for an Alaska
business license. Some consumer advocates believe this lack of regulation
subjects borrowers to predatory loan practices. Legitimate brokers complain
that impending nationwide regulation prevents people with sub-prime credit from
ever being able to own a home. Credit challenged buyers looking for an Alaska
mortgage take special precautions to avoid these unscrupulous lenders.
You are your own first defense against predatory brokers. There are financing
options which make it possible for people with less than perfect credit to buy
or refinance homes. If you're credit makes you a candidate for these programs,
you are responsible for checking out the lenders who offer them. Paying an
attorney to read over the documents may seem to be an unnecessary expense, but
it can save money and heartbreak in the long run. Protect other people as well.
Report any predatory lending practices to local, state and national
authorities.
