Practical answers for mortgage brokers and loan officers planning an initial homeowner inquiry.
It is an initial inquiry for homeowners considering a change to an existing mortgage. It collects contact, property, approximate loan, goal, timing, and follow-up details for review without presenting the submission as an application or decision.
Start with contact preference, property address, type, occupancy, estimated value, approximate balance, loan type, rate range, goal, timeline, campaign source, and follow-up consent. Make unknown figures optional or offer an unsure choice.
Keep the default path to information reviewers use before contact. Group property, loan, goal, and timing questions, then reserve cash-out, rental, or portfolio details for conditional paths.
Yes. Conditional logic can reveal cash-out ranges, investment-property details, or term choices only after the matching goal is selected. Relevant branches reduce clutter.
Practical ranges are often easier for an initial inquiry. Keep only fields needed for the first conversation, label optional questions, explain their purpose, and move detailed documents to a later workflow.
Yes. Makeform provides unlimited free forms and responses, so you can generate, edit, publish, and collect inquiries without a response cap. The paid tier removes the Makeform badge.
No. A submission is an inquiry for review. Use neutral confirmation copy, avoid promising rates, savings, qualification, or approval, and explain the actual next contact step.
Submissions can reach the Makeform inbox, email, Google Sheets, Slack, or Zapier. Structured goal, location, timing, property, and source fields help teams filter and assign them.
Turn homeowner interest into organized follow-up.
