Counts of loans each lender filed under HMDA. A lender's place in this table is a count, not a rating or a recommendation.

How these numbers were made

Source: the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau's public HMDA Snapshot National Loan-Level Dataset for 2025, the loan-level file every covered mortgage lender files under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, as published by the FFIEC. Lender names and kinds come from the same release's transmittal sheet.

Filter: loans with action taken 1 (originated), loan purpose 1 (home purchase), occupancy type 1 (principal residence), lien status 1 (first lien), and not a reverse mortgage, not an open-end line of credit and not for a business or commercial purpose (each coded 2, or 1111 where the filer is exempt from reporting it). Refinances, second homes, investment properties, second liens, reverse mortgages, home equity lines, business-purpose loans and applications that did not close are not counted. Every figure on this page is over those loans in this state, including counties too small for a page of their own.

Rounding: the public file rounds each loan amount to the midpoint of its $10,000 band, so every amount ends in 5,000. Total loan costs are reported by most but not all lenders, and the costs median is over the loans that report them. A county gets a page at 250 or more home-purchase loans in the year, and a smaller county is counted in its state's figures. Lender kind follows the agency each lender files HMDA with, read from the name where that agency supervises more than one kind. A loan came through a broker or other third party when the lender reports the application was not submitted to it directly, which HMDA does not split further.

The same row of data is available as CSV and plain text. The data refreshes each June when the prior year's file is published. Built 2026-10-15.
