CHARLOTTE, NC (June 28, 2010) – LendingTree today announced the launch of its first Blackberry app, the Mortgage RateFinder, now available at Blackberry App World. The free application allows users to obtain on-the-spot loan offers anonymously.


“In today’s low-rate mortgage environment, it’s important for consumers to shop around to ensure they’re receiving the best possible rate,” said Doug Lebda, founder and CEO of LendingTree. “In fact, since the introduction of our iPhone Mortgage RateFinder app in January, consumers have received more than 51,000 loan offers from participating lenders.”


The free Mortgage RateFinder App is extremely user friendly. Consumers simply enter information about the loan they would like and the app will instantly provide users with up to 30 different, customized loan offers from network lenders. Once a great offer is found, users can simply click to be contacted by that lender and move forward with the loan request.


Feature Highlights



• Completely FREE App, Completely FREE offers
• Search anonymously

LendingTree is strongly committed to protecting the privacy of all its customers. That’s why the Mortgage RateFinder only transmits a user’s personal information when that consumer requests to be contacted by a specific lender. Until that point, the search is anonymous and no lender can contact you without your pre-approved consent.
