THE CHANGING MORTGAGE MARKET

  • Marketing Strategies in an Uncertain Economy
  • Refinancing Rebound
  • Comparison Shopping and Provider Competition

 

SYNERGISTICS is launching a new study to evaluate the consumer mortgage relationship experience, as well as their perspective on the application process and comparison shopping. Experience with home equity credit products and refinancing activity are also examined.

 

Key Finding from Previous SYNERGISTICS Research: According to a 2009 SYNERGISTICS survey almost one-fifth of  first mortgage holders surveyed indicated that they  refinanced their mortgage in the past two years. As shown, this is a slight upturn from one in seven in 2008, following a decline in refinancing activity since 2003.
