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 North Carolina. State excise (transfer) tax of $1 per $500 of price, customarily paid by the seller, plus an additional 1 percent land transfer tax in seven northeastern counties (Camden, Chowan, Currituck, Dare, Pasquotank, Perquimans, Washington); no mortgage recording tax.
