The USDA National Lender of the Year Awards recognize top lending partners supporting rural homeownership through USDA Rural Development’s Single Family Housing Guaranteed Loan Program. Click n’ Close ranked second nationally in the Top Wholesale Lender category, behind United Wholesale Mortgage.

Click n’ Close offers USDA loans through its wholesale and correspondent channels, including a forgivable second-lien down payment assistance option that can be applied toward closing costs, escrows and prepaids. The company also supports manufactured home financing under the USDA program, expanding the range of eligible property types available to rural homebuyers.

“Rural borrowers often get overlooked by lenders chasing volume in metro markets,” said Jeff Bode, chief executive officer of Click n’ Close. “We built our wholesale platform to serve the brokers working in those communities, and this ranking tells us that approach is paying off for the families they’re helping get into homes.”

The USDA National Lender of the Year Awards Ceremony was held June 17 in Washington, D.C. Soliman Martinez, division manager, accepted the award on Click n’ Close’s behalf.
