What one lender may offer you may be very different from another lender. And don't assume you're getting the best rate by going on-line. A local lender (bank or broker) may be able to match or beat the rate and terms. You can always negotiate better terms (this works better face to face)- you don't have to take what's being offered to you. And as far as I know, you will not get penalized on your credit report for inquiries made for the same reason within a short period of time. The best advice I can give you is to shop around.
