BayCoast Mortgage

What BayCoast Mortgage does

BayCoast Mortgage Company, LLC is a full-service residential mortgage lender and a wholly-owned subsidiary of BayCoast Bank, a community savings bank established in 1851 and the fourth largest community bank in the South Coast region. Headquartered at 330 Swansea Mall Drive, Swansea, Massachusetts, the company originates residential purchase, refinance, renovation, and construction loans across 11 East Coast states (Massachusetts, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Maryland, Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Florida), with primary concentration in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. Its product suite spans conventional and jumbo loans (fixed-rate, adjustable-rate), government-backed programs (Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac, FHA, VA, USDA, MassHousing), and specialty offerings including construction loans (31-year terms with interest-only first year), home equity loans (HELOC/HELOAN), first-time homebuyer loans, blanket loans, bridge loans, land loans, and accessory dwelling unit (ADU) financing. The company also operates Martha's Vineyard Mortgage Company as a retained-brand division acquired in 2022.

The business operates a sales-led distribution model combining five physical mortgage offices in Massachusetts (Swansea, Vineyard Haven, Auburn, Plymouth, Fall River), a toll-free inside sales center, and an online application portal at mortgagewebcenter.com, supplemented by the parent bank's seven Interactive Teller Machine (ITM) branches in the South Coast area. Revenue is generated primarily through mortgage origination transaction fees on conventional, government, and specialty loans (which may be retained in portfolio or sold to GSEs like Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac), plus recurring servicing fee income — construction loans are originated by BayCoast Mortgage and serviced by the parent bank. The company holds NMLS ID 1082048 and is licensed as a Mortgage Banker in New Jersey, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, and Virginia. Marketing is driven by SEO/content (mortgage calculators, insights blog), community partnerships (Habitat for Humanity, MassHousing Buy Cities, VBBP), and referral flow from BayCoast Bank's consumer and commercial customer base; a down payment assistance program offers up to $10,000 in matching funds to qualifying first-time buyers in MA and RI CRA Assessment Areas.
