Discover Simplifies the Home Buying Process with its Online
One-stop Shop
RIVERWOODS, Ill.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Apr. 7, 2014--
Discover Home Loans has added a home search tool to its existing line of
services, giving homebuyers the convenience of searching for a home,
getting in touch with a real estate broker and applying for a mortgage
all on one easy-to-navigate website.
Discover Home Loans is building on its suite of online tools to help
people transition from a house hunter to homebuyer. Users can take
advantage of the new Multiple Listing Service search tool, provided by
Cartus Corporation, on their computers or mobile devices at any time,
giving them access to a comprehensive up-to-date national listing of
homes for sale in the U.S. It also offers the ability to compare nearby
homes for sale and information on nearby schools and neighborhoods.
Users also have access to Discover’s online calculators that can help
homebuyers understand their affordability and financing options and then
talk with a Discover Home Loans mortgage banker.
Homebuyers who want help from a real estate professional can request to
be paired with an agent in their area through the Real Estate Rewards
program, offered in conjunction with the Cartus broker network. They
also can receive from $200 to $3,100 in rewards after financing the
purchase of a new home.
“By expanding our services, Discover Home Loans has made the process
simpler for homebuyers,” said Robert Smith, president of Discover Home
Loans. “Now homebuyers can visit our website to calculate how much they
can afford, and immediately search for homes in their price range.”

-
Competitive rates, no hidden fees and a close-on-time guarantee
