GUARANTEED RATE, INC. vs The Huntington National Bank

Both lenders' 2025 filings, side by side: the rate and the fees their borrowers actually got, and what the difference is worth over 7 years.

Over 7 years on a $245,000 loan, the median terms at GUARANTEED RATE, INC. come out $12,891 cheaper.

GUARANTEED RATE, INC. costs more at closing, so it only pulls ahead in month 12 — 1 year in. Leave sooner and the other side was the cheaper one.

Same loan on both sides — $245,000 over 30 years — priced at each lender's median rate and median fees for 2025. It is not a quote: HMDA records what borrowers received, and the two lenders serve different borrowers.
