When I was looking to refi, Lending Tree was a good choice. Don't know how they do on origination.
If we weren't first-time buyers with zero experience here and little chance of getting a direct conventional loan at this time, I would go straight to lenders too. But we need help, and paying for broker services (and advice, and hand-holding, and connections) is probably a good idea for us.
