A high approval share with a small median loan usually points to a lender comfortable with first time and FHA borrowers. A large median loan with conventional and jumbo programs points to a move up and jumbo specialist. The health grade says whether a bank or credit union is financially sound; it says nothing about service, which is what the reviews below are for.

An attorney must handle the closing in Connecticut. State conveyance tax of 0.75 percent up to $800,000, 1.25 percent on the portion from $800,000 to $2.5 million and 2.25 percent above that, plus a municipal tax of 0.25 percent (up to 0.5 percent in some towns); no mortgage recording tax.
