Our journey toward a more equitable housing market
We continue to help make housing more accessible and affordable by harnessing technology and data to set new standards in a way we believe is safe and secure. Our latest enhancements to increase LTV ratios for loans on multi-unit residences and removing the number of borrowers included on a mortgage application as a risk factor in DU's assessment are just two steps along our path to help reduce homeownership barriers for underserved communities and future generations. Our journey continues toward housing that’s accessible and affordable to all.
