Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a mortgage broker and a bank in Sonoma?
A mortgage broker works as an intermediary, connecting you with multiple lenders to find the best loan terms. A bank offers only its own loan products. Brokers can often access a wider range of loan programs, including those for jumbo loans common in high-value areas like Sonoma.
Does California require a specific license for mortgage brokers?
Yes. Mortgage brokers in California must hold a license from the Nationwide Multistate Licensing System and be registered with the California Department of Financial Protection and Innovation. They must also pass a background check and complete continuing education courses.
How long does it take to get a mortgage through a broker in Sonoma?
The typical timeline from application to closing is 30 to 45 days. California law requires lenders to provide a Loan Estimate within three business days of application and a Closing Disclosure at least three business days before closing. Delays can occur with appraisals or complex property types.
