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 Kentucky. State deed transfer tax of $0.50 per $500 of value (0.1 percent), paid by the seller (KRS 142.050); no mortgage recording tax.
