Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in St. Joseph, Michigan in 2025, as reported under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. No lender pays for a higher spot.

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 St. Joseph, Michigan. 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.

Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in St. Joseph, Michigan during 2025 as reported under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. No lender pays to be listed or to rank higher, and reviews do not change the order. Counts cover first and second lien loans on one to four unit homes for purchase, refinance and home improvement; home equity lines are counted separately.
Lender rankings use the loan level records that lenders file under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, published by the FFIEC and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau for the 2025 reporting year. Counts include originated first and subordinate lien loans on one to four unit homes in St. Joseph, Michigan for purchase, refinance and other purposes; home equity lines of credit are counted separately and reverse mortgages and business purpose loans are excluded. Approval share is originations plus approved but not accepted applications divided by all completed applications (withdrawn and incomplete files are excluded).

Health grades are MonitorBankRates data and are current as of the date shown. Lenders below the HMDA reporting thresholds do not appear. MonitorBankRates receives no payment for placement on this page. Last updated October 8, 2026.
