What we don't know
- Whether Lower, LLC is taking new 1-4 unit investor loans today, or how it would treat a property like yours.
- The loans one by one. The HMDA figures here are counts for each lender and state, so there are no loan rows, counties, rates or terms for this kind of loan.
- Loans made before 2025. One year is on record here, so nothing on this page is a change over time.
- Its minimum or maximum loan and its fees.
The loans counted are 2025 HMDA originations on 1 to 4 unit properties that the filing marks as an investment property or as made for a business purpose. A lender that does not report under HMDA has none on record.
Dollars and the median cover all states together. On fewer than 5 loans a dollar figure is rounded to 2 significant figures. Where a lender files under more than one HMDA identifier, the median is that of its largest filer.
Source and date appear beside each figure. Banks report balances, not loans made. Loans made come only from HMDA and SBA files. We do not audit filings and can make errors joining them. Report a problem
Figures come from public records and show the source and date beside them. Public records can be late, incomplete or wrong. A past loan does not mean a lender will make the same kind of loan today. Confirm anything important with the lender.
