Why is Flagstar closing branches?

Earlier this year, the organization's Chief Financial Officer, Lee Smith, announced plans to close 60 branches in 2025 as part of a larger initiative at Flagstar to cut $600 million in operating costs.
More generally, this move follows industry-wide trends, as more banks respond to the growing demand for digital services and shifting customer behaviors by consolidating physical locations. Customers can expect to see more closures this year, although a complete list has not been released yet.

Flagstar Bank is committed to a personal, community approach to banking. Local branch managers, tellers, and loan officers built relationships with customers. For those in small towns, especially retirees and individuals less familiar with technology, the local bank branch is the place to go for financial advice. Online transactions can't replicate these types of face-to-face interactions.
