Full Review
LenderFi said via email in fall 2022 that it had decided to leave the mortgage-lending business, and its website no longer offers information about the company, its contact details or remaining operations. Previously, borrowers could purchase or refinance primary residences, and vacation and second homes.

Methodology
NerdWallet’s overall ratings for mortgage lenders are evaluated based on four major categories: variety of loan types (purchase, refinance, fixed and adjustable, for example), ease of application, rates and fees and rate transparency. Among the factors we consider when scoring these categories are options to apply for and track loans online, the level of detail about mortgage rates on lender websites and our analysis of the rates and fees lenders reported in the latest available Home Mortgage Disclosure Act data. These scores generate ratings from 1 star (poor) to 5 stars (excellent).
