re: best lender for home purchase?

Bank of America is pretty terrible as well. Their website is pretty basic and you cannot even set up a recurring payment. You have to schedule it every month to be paid.

I really liked Wells Fargo. That's who we had before we refinanced. They offered to set us up on bi-weekly payments (26 payments of 1/2 your mortgage, giving you 13 payments over 12 months). It cuts your 30 year note by 7.5 years, which is nice.
