“Cordless Media has the second largest online real estate audience in the country, and we couldn’t be happier to improve the home-shopping experience,” said Darren Chausse, founder and CEO of Cordless Media. “It’s difficult for consumers to navigate the continuously changing mortgage market, so it’s important for us to help them understand the landscape of loan programs, interest rates and their estimated monthly impact.
