Yes lots of sites give comparisons
some might be out of date
Some might want just to sell you details on to brokers willing to pay for leads
some might really be brokers
some might no show all deals - especially the broker exclusives
some might not be able to correctly filter your circumstances/ lenders criteria
Read the articles on mortgages on this site http://www.moneysavingexpert.com/mortgages
for example site and details on how to find
a broker who might do the hard work for you
