Do local mortgage businesses or their agents usually serve a city or a county or state/province.

You sound like a CONSUMER who's come to an industry personnel only discussion board, who's having some problems or serious concerns at minimum. I'll do my best to help:
Is it common to make mortgage application on the phone?
YES Is it a good idea?
OF COURSE
How about making an online application?
FINE IF THE ACTUAL PAGE IS "SECURED" Do people easily give out SSN and all other private info?
"IF" THEY ARE ACTUALLY ASKING FOR A LOAN OF COURSE, IF THEY'RE MERELY 'SHOPPING' - DON'T WASTE EVERYBODY'S TIME
Are there mortgage services in most cities, say with population over 20.000?
YES, THEY ARE AVAILABLE TO PEOPLE ALL OVER THE NATION, EITHER VIA FACE TO FACE INSIDE A BRICK & MORTAR OFFICE OR VIA INTERNET
Do local mortgage businesses or their agents usually serve a city or a county or state/province.
MANY STAY 'LOCAL' WHILE OTHERS WILL WORK IN A LARGER AREA, INTERNET FOR INSTANCE WOULD BE AN EXAMPLE OF WORKING IN A LARGER SCALE ENVIRONMENT
Is it legal to offer listings for mortgage services?
SURE IT IS Never seen such a thing.
DO YOU LIVE HERE IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA? IF YES, THEN YOU HAD TO NOTICE THEM!
