How many lenders offer home equity loans in Tampa?

Should I use a broker or a lender for home equity loans?

Either can get you the loan. A mortgage lender funds it with its own money; a mortgage broker shops it to several lenders and does not fund it; a bank or credit union lends its own deposits. Each card says which kind the firm is. Compare at least two, and ask each whether it funds or brokers the loan.
