For Real Estate Agents

A mortgage partner Realtors trust to keep deals moving

Same-day pre-approvals. Same-day responses on questions during a live contract. No fall-out from surprise overlays or junk fees at closing. Built for the agent who is tired of chasing a loan officer on a Saturday.

Why agents partner with Rate Direct

  • Same-day pre-approvals. Documents in by morning, letter by afternoon. We answer the phone on weekends during active contracts.
  • No junk fees. Transparent quoting standard. Our 1% origination is a stated line item and lender fees are itemized up front, no surprises on the Closing Disclosure.
  • Loan Factory backing. Operations, processing, and underwriting support from Loan Factory Inc, NMLS# 320841. Files do not sit.
  • Nationwide coverage. Licensed broker shop with the ability to price against hundreds of wholesale lenders, so the buyer is not stuck with one bank's overlay.
  • Broker, not retail bank. We price-shop hundreds of lenders for each scenario. Retail banks shop one rate sheet. The math favors the buyer here.
  • $2K Best Price Guarantee. If your buyer brings in a competing Loan Estimate we cannot beat, we pay them $2,000. Strong closing-table confidence.

How co-marketing works

Leads sent over are attributed back to the referring agent for any future transactions. There are no paid kickbacks and no revenue-share arrangements, which keeps the relationship RESPA-compliant. Standard co-marketing options are available, including jointly branded Open House flyers, branded rate-sheet handouts, and listing-specific buyer pre-qualification landing pages. The objective is simply to give your buyer honest pricing and a clean process from contract to clear-to-close.
