Mortgage Data

Review & Overview

Florida is a smaller mortgage company specializing in Home Purchase loans. Florida has a high proportion of conventional loans. Their top markets by origination volume include: Ocala, Gainesville, Deltona, Lake City, and Homosassa Springs among others. We have data for 16 markets. (Some data included below & more in-depth data is available with an active subscription.)

Florida has an average approval rate when compared to the average across all lenders. They have a below average pick rate when compared to similar lenders. Florida is typically a low fee lender. (We use the term "fees" to include things like closing costs and other costs incurred by borrowers-- whether they are paid out of pocket or rolled into the loan.) They typically have about average rates.

We show data for every lender and do not change our ratings-- even if an organization is a paid advertiser. Our consensus data does have lag, but it is highly correlated to a lender's rates & fees relative to their markets. This means that if a bank is a low fee/rate lender the past-- chances are they are still one today. Our SimulatedRates™ use advanced statistical techniques to forecast different rates based on a lender's historical data.
