Denial rate = denied applications ÷ (originated + denied) for home-purchase loans; it reflects who applied to that lender, not your odds. Rate spread = the loan's APR minus the average prime offer rate for a comparable loan when it was locked (lower is cheaper vs the market; negative means below the benchmark). Medians are for conventional first-lien home-purchase loans the lender made. HMDA is past data, not a quote. Source: CFPB/FFIEC HMDA 2025 data via the HMDA Data Browser (pulled 2026-10-12).
