A jumbo lender in miniature
Its typical loan was $405,000, against $245,000 at similar lenders (savings institutions making between half and twice as many loans). Jumbo loans (larger than the conforming limit) made up 29.4% of its lending, against 2.4% at peers, a higher share than at almost all of them. The jumbo share was 32.8% in 2024 and 9.3% five years earlier, so the shift to larger loans is not a one-year blip.
