The articles supplied below are from Your Mortgage Magazine, a monthly print publication that is now available on-line. IRED gave it a TOP 10 Award in July 1997 when naming the Top 10 Mortgage and Financial Sites for Real Estate. This Australian on-line magazine and a Canadian site were the only 2 non-US sites to make it into the IRED TOP 10 list this year. In our view it was a very well deserved Award.

This excellent site contains a wealth of information for borrowers and investors. Any person contemplating a mortgage should visit Your Mortgage Magazine (or buy it each month at your local newsagent).

The Comparative Rate Analysis feature, Todays Rates, provides the in-depth information that borrowers really need to make the best financing decisions to suit their situation. The time taken to download the information reflects the quantity and the quality rather than poor design. It is worth waiting for.
