    Some mortgage websites routinely fail to provide accurate information directly from lenders.

    While interest rates are climbing some people are turning to mortgage websites to try and get the best deal. Like some things on the internet, these deals can often seem too good to be true. Andy Hill is a mortgage broker who recently co-founded ratefilter.ca. He says some mortgage websites routinely fail to provide accurate information directly from lenders. Hill says the new website provides people with accurate mortgage rates directly from lenders rather than brokers. The website is similar to Expedia, which provides users with the best hotel rates directly from hotels, rather than from a third party, like a broker.
