Discover Home Loans to Launch Websites for Real Living Real Estate Franchisees

Websites To Feature Most Current Information on Local Homes for Sale and Mortgage Rates

RIVERWOODS, Ill.--()--Discover Home Loans plans to launch websites for select franchisees of Real Living Real Estate that feature the most up-to-date local home listings and help customers connect with real estate agents and mortgage professionals earlier in the process of buying a home. The program is expected to expand to additional markets later this year.

The websites will feature information about the local community as well as current loan options, including:

  • Homes for sale
  • Neighborhood and school statistics
  • Current mortgage rates, calculators, and estimated monthly payments
  • Contact information for real estate agents and mortgage bankers
  • Additional home buying tips

“By answering mortgage-related questions like, ‘How much home can I afford?’ and doing it earlier in the process, we will give homebuyers greater confidence and put them in a better position when placing an offer on a specific home,” said Robert J. Smith, president of Discover Home Loans.

“The goal of working with Discover Home Loans is to provide our brokers and agents with the knowledge and tools to better serve homebuyers and to ultimately be more successful,” said Robert W. McAdams, Jr., president of Real Living.
