Figures are medians of loans actually originated in 2025, as reported under the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act. They describe what borrowers received, not what you would be offered: HMDA contains no credit scores, so these numbers cannot be read as pricing for any individual. Lender fees are reported for 51.8% of loans here — see methodology.
