Ask your friends and family which lenders they've used and what their experiences were like with their mortgage lenders. Find out who they would recommend.
Do your research. An easy way to research many mortgage companies is to go online; there are more lenders at your fingertips than you can count.
The last and probably most important thing to remember is that you should look for a lender before you start shopping for a home. This may sound backwards, but it's actually a smart thing to do. If you get the mortgage process started before you shop for a house, it can make things easier. Quicken Loans offers a Smart Buyer pre-approval. The benefits to this are that you know how much you can spend - there's little guesswork. Plus, once you're ready to make an offer on a house, you can make a firm offer, which gives your offer more weight and credibility over other offers that are not pre-approved.
Ultimately, the mortgage lender you choose should guide you through the entire mortgage process. The best lender must be one that is committed to taking care of your needs - one you're comfortable working with and one who will work to get you the best mortgage to fit your situation.
