Compare at least three lenders and ask each for a written loan estimate before you choose.

Looking for mortgage lenders near me or mortgage brokers near me in Sandusky? The list below shows the banks, credit unions and mortgage brokers that closed home loans in Sandusky in 2025, with lenders based there listed first.
Use these to narrow the list above. Each category shows how many Sandusky, OH lenders fit and what that kind of lender is usually best for.
Independent mortgage companies closed 57.7 percent of home loans in Sandusky, Ohio in 2025, banks 40 percent and credit unions 2.3 percent. Union Home Mortgage Corp. was the largest mortgage company, Civista Bank the largest bank and VacationLand Federal Credit Union the largest credit union.

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.
Title or escrow companies usually handle closings in Ohio. State real property conveyance fee of $1 per $1,000 plus a permissive county fee of up to $3 per $1,000, for a total of up to $4 per $1,000 (0.4 percent), customarily paid by the seller; no mortgage recording tax.

Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in Sandusky, Ohio 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 Sandusky, Ohio 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 Approval share is originations plus approved but not accepted applications divided by all completed applications (withdrawn and incomplete files are excluded). Lender type comes from the lender's federal regulator and the FFIEC National Information Center. City figures use the Census tracts that make up Sandusky. 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.
