Origination

NorStates Bank has selected HomeBridge Financial Services to provide origination of residential mortgage loans.

United Guaranty Corp.'s second-quarter pretax operating income fell 25% from a year ago due to a less favorable adjustment to its loan loss reserves.

LendingTree posted record revenue during the second quarter, leading the company to upwardly revise its full-year guidance.

Guaranteed Rate's Oren Orkin explains how helping real estate agents host their open houses has led to new referral relationships and increased mortgage business.

Commercial real estate borrowing and lending continued at a strong clip in the second quarter, according to the Mortgage Bankers Association.

Guardian Mortgage has named a Bank of America executive to succeed Marcia Phillips as chief executive.

Banks are seeing stronger consumer demand for credit for a range of products, including residential mortgages, auto loans and credit cards, according to a Federal Reserve Board survey of senior loan officers released Monday.

While mortgage loan delinquencies continued to fall in June, non-mortgage debt continues to mount, according to data from Black Knight Financial Services. This added debt could affect a consumer's ability to keep making mortgage payments or buy a new home.

Unlike in personal loans, where Lending Club saw an opportunity to lower the cost of consumer credit card debt, in mortgages, the play is not in providing lower-priced credit, but rather in removing friction, Renaud Laplanche says.

Most real estate agents and home builders have heard about the new mortgage disclosures that take effect Oct. 1 but are light on the details, and many of the lenders they rely on lack sufficient understanding to help them.
