UMortgage Q3 Snapshot: Families Served, Industry Awards, & New Tech

The third quarter of 2025 was a big one for UMortgage as it continued to create life-changing opportunities through homeownership. Between new industry accolades, first-of-its-kind technology, and thousands of families served, Q3 gave UMortgage plenty of momentum to close out the year strong as mortgage rates continue to drop. UMortgage started the quarter with a reminder of the company’s continued growth when it was named to the Inc. 5000 list of America’s fastest-growing private companies for the second year in a row. This prestigious award was earned after UMortgage grew its revenue by 716% from 2021 to 2024, helping 21,639 families build generational wealth through homeownership along the way. When mortgage rates dropped in Q3, UMortgage Loan Originators were quick to help homebuyers and homeowners take advantage of newfound affordability and savings. They originated a combined 1,729 mortgages, including 508 VA loans and 410 refinances, in 41 different states across the country. Each of these families received industry-best service throughout their mortgage process as well. UMortgage’s Net Promoter Score (NPS) was 98 out of 100 in Q3. A company’s NPS is earned through single-question surveys sent to clients immediately after closing to gauge their experience when it’s freshest. Positive relationships with borrowers and real estate agents are at the center of UMortgage’s ethos. To help UMortgage Loan Originators track and improve their relationships, UMortgage launched the Referral Partner Relationship Tracker in Q3 on Tempo, its proprietary sales performance tracking app. The Relationship Tracker, launched on August 15, 2025, provides every LO with a simple way to log touchpoints (calls, meetings, texts, and emails), view relationship health at a glance, and receive alerts when they need to reach out, all within Tempo. It’s integrated with ARIVE and Salesforce, so activity is captured automatically, and follow-up never falls through the cracks. The Tempo team is actively working on the Lead Tracker, which provides similar resources to deliver a consistent and excellent experience for individuals seeking a mortgage. The results of these tools within Tempo are more proactive communication with borrowers and agents, stronger referral pipelines, and a better post-closing experience. UMortgage and its Loan Originators are committed to providing prospective homebuyers, homeowners, and real estate with a best-in-class mortgage experience. Ready to learn more?

Market Update

Housing Market Update | Week of September 29th

Mortgage rates were largely unchanged throughout the week. Friday’s PCE inflation report came in just in line with economists’ expectations. Core PCE, which excludes food & energy and is closely watched by the Fed, rose 0.2% for the month and held steady at 2.9% year-over-year. This ultimately left mortgage rates unchanged between the start of the week and the end. This week is jobs week, with several pivotal labor reports scheduled to be released between Tuesday and Friday. As we’ve maintained throughout the year, the labor market will dictate how many rate cuts we get; for rates to drop, we need to see job growth continue to stall, especially in Friday’s Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) jobs report. One thing to watch is a potential government shutdown this week, which, if it occurs, would delay the release of Friday’s report. Last Week's Mortgage Rate Recap Rates Were Steady Last week’s biggest piece of market-moving data was Friday’s PCE inflation report. The Fed has a dual mandate to maintain a healthy labor market and keep inflation under control; Friday’s report showed headline inflation rose by 0.3% in August, which was in line with economists’ forecasts. Without any data-driven red flags, the 10-year dropped slightly heading into the weekend, and mortgage rates stayed within the tight range where they started the week. This Week's Mortgage Rate Forecast Rates Could Be Volatile We have a busy week ahead. It’s jobs week, and this batch of labor reports will be pivotal to the Fed’s decision for or against cutting rates during its Fed Meeting in the last week of October. As always, Friday’s BLS employment report will have the most significant impact on mortgage rates and the 10-year Treasury, but the reports we receive between Tuesday and Thursday could also cause some movement. Here’s the schedule for the week ahead: Tuesday: Job Openings, Losses, and Turnover Survey (JOLTS) Wednesday: ADP Employment Report Thursday: Initial Jobless Claims Friday: BLS Jobs Report One potential wrinkle for this week’s labor data will be the potential government shutdown. If an agreement cannot be met by Wednesday’s deadline, the impending government shutdown would prevent the release of Friday’s BLS report. In the past, government shutdowns have sent the 10-year lower, but the longer-term implications depend on the length of the shutdown if one were to happen. All that to say, it’s a big week for mortgage rates! If you have any questions or would like a quick update as the data rolls in, follow this link to connect with a mortgage expert near you!

I had a difficult mortgage due to county issues etc. Fortunately I also had the best people working for me. You'll never regret a moment having Corey on your side. He's so dedicated to the customer, keeps you up-to-date on everything, and is just one hell of a guy. I have my first home because Corey made it happen, and I couldn't thank him enough. This guy is truly top of his game and I'm blessed to have had him on my team.

I can't say enough good things about Vinnie. If you want someone that contacts you right away and is there for you and your buyers the entire time through the whole process then you have to talk to Vinnie and see for yourself. My buyers are always very pleased with his professionalism and efficiency. He definitely goes the extra mile for them. They appreciate it and so do I.
