A government-backed purchase lender
Purchase was 90.1% of its loans. Besides its FHA share, 7.4% were VA (guaranteed by the Department of Veterans Affairs) and 3.7% RHS (guaranteed by the Department of Agriculture's Rural Housing Service). Similar lenders (state non-member banks making between half and twice as many loans) typically made none of these, so its conventional share, 53.5%, is lower than nearly all of them.
