Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in Sonora, California in 2025, as reported under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. No lender pays for a higher spot. Lenders based in Sonora are listed first, then lenders elsewhere in California, then lenders from other states that closed loans there. Banks and credit unions carry a MonitorBankRates health grade, star rating and Texas Ratio, so you can judge how financially sound they are. Mortgage companies have no deposits to rate, so compare their loan programs, median loan and borrower reviews instead. Compare at least three lenders and ask each for a written loan estimate before you choose.
Market share is the lender's share of all home loans closed in Sonora, California. Approval share is approvals divided by completed applications. Grade is the MonitorBankRates Health and Safety Grade, available for banks and credit unions only. Average loan is the lender's mean loan amount here.
