Lenders are ranked only by the number of home loans they closed in Merlin, Oregon in 2025, as reported under the federal Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. No lender pays for a higher spot. Lenders based in Merlin are listed first, then lenders elsewhere in Oregon, 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.

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 Oregon. None statewide (the Oregon Constitution bars new transfer taxes) except Washington County, which charges $1 per $1,000 of price; no mortgage recording tax.
