In case you were wondering, savings and loans and banks made $3.7 billion worth of home loans in Orange County through May.
More than 220 financial institutions made the loans, according to Damar Corp., a Los Angeles market research firm that keeps track of that sort of thing.
Far and away the biggest lender was Great Western Savings with 9% of the market and $341 million in loans.
Second was Homes Savings of America, with 7% of the market and $265 million in loans.
