Advisors are specialized field. These people must understand their world carefully to provide the best advices and recommendations to their clients. Let’s imagine that you live in Montana and then you find a honest and skillful mortgage advisor who resides in San Diego, California. What information and advices you can get from him. It is very likely that the advisor can only give you generalized advices on your current situations or based on national trends. He doesn’t understand you situation. He may even never come to Montana and understand about the local trend and culture in mortgage industry. It would be very inefficient to spend hundreds of dollars on general advices that can be easily obtained through free mortgage articles on the internet.
On the other hand, a local mortgage advisor can give you more detailed information about your locality. Where he can even say, which house to buy and which mortgage lender to choose. Your money invested on him can return more significantly as you obtain better advices based on your the local conditions.

However, you should be wary that local mortgage advisor can be a "fake", he may secretly work with a local bank or local house broker. He may use subtlety to lure you to use a specific bank, he may at first recommend other banks but at certain points, he argues that based on present situation he change his recommendation. Other than the fee charged, he can get a commission from the bank for directing you for choosing the bank.

To be honest, although you can find dozens of mortgage advisors online, Internet has one huge disadvantage, you can't see the person. You can't see his face, hear his voices and how they act. Just like in normal human interaction, physical cues are important in establishing relationship, although you may argue that in real world where we can talk to a person directly, there is still a good chance that we are being scammed no matter how good or how honest the person may look like.
Recommendation is huge factor in finding a good service online. If possible, use a mortgage advisor that has been hired by your friends or family member. Or at least, the advisor has been employed by many clients, and they seem to be satisfied by the advisor performance. Read testimonies and reviews and make sure the advisor can offer you all the services and information that you need in achieving your dream to have a good house where you can live with your family for many years to come.
Make sure the advisor's web site is professionally designed and managed. Poor interfaces, typos and generic looks should raise an alarm in your head. Although a good website does not guarantee a honest and competent advisor. But if you are not sure you can trust someone online for such a monumental undertaking like buying a house, then it can be better to find someone near your new house, who understands all the ins and out of local property business.
