Why We’re Focused on Mortgage Diversity


The future belongs to those who adapt and change. The homebuyer pool is growing more and more diverse, and lenders need to be purposeful about strategies that reach these changing markets.

Did you know?

  • 8.5 million new households are forecasted to be formed between 2020-2030. Only 455,000 are expected to be white.
  • There are millions of mortgage-ready Black and Hispanic households today.
  • There’s $2.5 trillion in purchase opportunity to non-white households over the next 5 years.

Equitable lending is a way to help the community, but it’s also a prudent business strategy. The loans are out there; you might just have to proactively look where you haven’t before.

What Clients Say


“To say that we used Mortgage MarketSmart to develop an SPCP is a robust understatement… It would be a mistake to think of iEmergent as just a data provider. They are much more active than that.”

Evan Zuverink, First Commonwealth Bank


“Other market intelligence firms’ products were so technical you’d need a data team to manage them, but iEmergent presented equally powerful capabilities in an accessible way. You don’t have to be a tech wizard to understand it or use it.”

John Harpst, Lake Michigan Credit Union


“My LOs…are very pleased with how they can use Mortgage MarketSmart to grow volume by helping underserved, mortgage-ready consumers.”

Jadira Hoptry, First Merchants Bank
