Understanding Mortgage Market Share in South Florida

Why mortgage market share matters: The distribution of lending activity across banks and mortgage companies reveals competitive dynamics in the real estate market. Lenders with larger market share often set the pace for interest rates, underwriting standards, and loan products available to buyers in the region.

What this data shows: We analyze all recorded mortgage originations in Miami-Dade and Broward counties, ranking lenders by total dollar volume. This includes conventional loans, FHA/VA loans, and jumbo mortgages. Each lender's market share represents their percentage of total originated volume across all tracked transactions.

For buyers and agents: Knowing which lenders are most active in your target area can help you choose a lender with local expertise and faster closing times. Dominant lenders in a market often have streamlined processes for properties in that area.

For investors: Shifts in mortgage market share can signal changes in lending appetite. When traditional banks pull back, private lenders and credit unions often fill the gap — sometimes with different terms that affect property values and transaction volume.

Methodology & Data Sources

Mortgage data is derived from county property appraiser records for Miami-Dade and Broward counties. We extract lender names from recorded mortgage instruments and aggregate by total dollar volume and loan count.

Lender normalization: Bank and lender names are normalized to group subsidiaries and DBA names under their parent organizations where possible. This provides a more accurate picture of true market share.

Data is updated weekly as new recordings are published by the county. Market share percentages reflect the full available dataset.
