Except that's not how it works. You don't pay the mortgage company, you pay the seller.

In the U.S., you pay the title company which acts as or with an escrow company. The escrow company disperses funds to the correct companies once the proper paperwork and all conditions of the sale are met. This could include paying the mortgage company fees and prepaid interest or paying the seller.
