Mortgage Daily Q2 2016 Biggest Lender Ranking

DALLAS, Sept. 26, 2016 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- As quarterly mortgage lending activity made a big leap, two large financial institutions traded spots on the list of the country's biggest originators.

Data collected by  Mortgage Daily  indicate that there were an estimated $488 billion in residential loan originations during the second quarter.

Home-lending activity accelerated from the  previous three-month period , when national mortgage production came to an estimated $354 billion.

A modest gain was made compared to the  second quarter of last year , a period when U.S. loan originations totaled $478 billion.

Second-quarter 2016 production included $213 billion in mortgages originated by banks. Another $44 billion came from credit unions, and non-bank originators delivered the remaining $232 billion.

Wells Fargo solidly maintained its position as the nation's largest mortgage lender with $63 billion in second-quarter 2016 production.

Mortgage Daily  collected the mortgage lending data for individual companies from quarterly financial statements, filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, company announcements and the  Mortgage Daily Second Quarter 2016  Mortgage Origination Survey .

Bank of America, which ranked No 5 in the first-quarter report, bumped U.S. Bancorp from the fourth spot in the latest ranking.
