Why borrowers applied
Purchase, refinance and cash-out are reported as distinct purposes; average loan size usually separates them more sharply than volume does.
| Purpose | Applications | Originated | Avg Loan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Other | 100 | 53 | $98,800 |
| Home Improvement | 78 | 49 | $79,359 |

| Refinancing | 7 | 3 | $277,857 |
Reported outcomes by applicant race
CFPB derived race categories. HMDA carries no credit score, debt-to-income ratio or down payment, so a gap between these rows is an outcome difference and never, on its own, evidence of discrimination.
| Race | Applications | Approval Rate | Denial Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| White | 143 | 62.2% | 16.8% |
| Black or African American * | 47 | 48.9% | 36.2% |
| Asian * | 36 | 44.4% | 33.3% |
| Joint * | 8 | 62.5% | 25.0% |
| American Indian or Alaska Native * | 1 | 100.0% | 0.0% |
* Fewer than 50 applications -- percentages for this group have wide statistical uncertainty and should not be read as precise.
Reported outcomes by applicant ethnicity
Hispanic or Latino is an ethnicity, not a race, and is reported separately per U.S. Census Bureau standards. The same limitation applies: HMDA records the outcome, not the underwriting inputs behind it.
| Ethnicity | Applications | Approval Rate | Denial Rate |
|---|---|---|---|
| Not Hispanic or Latino | 159 | 58.5% | 21.4% |
| Hispanic or Latino | 74 | 52.7% | 27.0% |
| Joint * | 14 | 64.3% | 28.6% |
* Fewer than 50 applications -- percentages for this group have wide statistical uncertainty and should not be read as precise.
