the mortgage lender's
Explanation:
This translation is the more common usage in US and UK English.
If you put "mortgage company" into your search engine, note how often "mortgage lender" comes up.
In the Wikipedia article <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mortgage_loan> , 'company' is not used, but 'lender' occurs frequently.
