New York · Long Island

Long Island mortgage broker

Nassau and Suffolk are mostly single-family markets, with co-ops and condos in towns like Great Neck and Garden City and jumbo second homes in the Hamptons. New York's mortgage recording tax applies here too at a lower rate than in the city, so a CEMA can still save money on a purchase or refinance.
