How these numbers are counted

Reported application outcomes and pricing, 2025

  • Filed asBETTER MORTGAGE CORPORATION
  • 2025 home loan decisionsOf 27,384 applications decided by BETTER MORTGAGE CORPORATION in 2025, 14,567 were originated, 463 were approved but not accepted by the borrower, and 12,354 were denied.
  • Approval rate: approved (originated plus approved but not accepted) as a share of applications decided (approved plus denied) = 54.9%. Withdrawn, incomplete and purchased loans are not counted.
  • Withdrawn, incomplete and purchasedBeyond the decisions above, 11,371 applications were withdrawn by the borrower, 6,927 were closed for incompleteness, and 333 loans were purchased from another lender. HMDA counts these as outcomes in their own right — withdrawn before a decision, closed with no decision reached, and a purchased loan is one bought from another lender — and none of them is a lending decision.
  • Median rate spread0.639 percentage points above the average prime offer rate (reported on 12,253 originations, 2,314 reported no spread at all — a median of what was reported, not of everything originated)

These are reported outcomes from past applications, and on their own they do not show how this lender treated any borrower.
