PricingMedians of 2025 loans

Median interest rate, 2025Exempt

The lender filed the interest rate as “Exempt” for all of its 135 loans originated in 2025.

Medians are for originated closed-end loans with a first lien. Reverse mortgages, open-end lines of credit and loans for a business purpose are not in the medians.

The applications, the loans originated and the denial rate on this page do not need the exempt fields.

A lender with a partial exemption can file “Exempt” in place of the interest rate, the total loan costs and some other fields. The glossary has the rule.

If a financial institution is eligible for a partial exemption for a specific transaction, then the financial institution is not required to collect, record, or report certain data points for the transaction.
