Atlanta, GA (PRWEB) July 16, 2008 -- CenturyPoint Mortgage, a division of First Century Bank, N.A., announced today that the company recently received certification as an Upfront Mortgage Lender.

CenturyPoint has met the rigorous requirements to become a certified Upfront Mortgage Lender, which include providing detailed loan pricing online, disclosing and guaranteeing all lender fees, and clearly explaining rate lock requirements. A UML must also inform borrowers if its loan officers are compensated in a way that might incent them to overcharge a borrower, such as a percentage based commission or bonus structure. (CenturyPoint loan officers are paid a flat fee per loan.)
