Can you promote here?
Promotion is allowed only with moderator permission (or inside designated threads). A short, honest modmail before posting costs two minutes and functions as a safe-conduct pass; skipping it is the most common avoidable removal.
From the rules · Surveys/polls and generic/hypothetical posts are disallowed — ask moderators before posting any promotional/self‑serving content.
Links
Only specific link types are allowed (docs, papers, non-commercial). Commercial links are removal bait.
What this community rewards
Dominant post formats: question, discussion, guide
Title = a clear question/issue (include $ amounts, rate, location). Write in first person with concrete numbers and timeline. Typical length: short-to-medium (100–600 words) with bullets for key figures. Tone: practical, neutral, detail-focused. What wins: real situations, specific numbers, clear ask; what fails/is removed: vague/hypothetical posts, surveys/polls, milestone/meta or promotional content without mod approval.
Arriving in the local format matters: cross-posting the same text everywhere reads as tourist instantly. The wider method is in the Reddit playbook.
Classified mechanically from the community's published rules and recent top posts, last checked July 2026. Rules change and moderators have the final say: verify at r/mortgages's rules page before posting anything that matters.
Thread Otter checks this before every send
These profiles power the product: promo-banned communities never receive a promotional draft, drafts arrive in the local format, and a fact-check gate plus human pacing protect the account doing the talking.
