How to Read This List

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.

Attorneys customarily handle closings in Illinois. State transfer tax of $0.50 per $500 plus a county tax of $0.25 per $500, usually paid by the seller; Chicago adds $3.75 per $500 paid by the buyer and $1.50 per $500 paid by the seller, and many suburbs levy their own stamps. No mortgage recording tax.
