Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in Salem, North Carolina in 2025, as reported under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. No lender pays for a higher spot. Lenders based in Salem are listed first, then lenders elsewhere in North Carolina, then lenders from other states that closed loans there. 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.
