What we don't know

  • Whether it is taking new loans today, or on what terms.
  • How much of its book it made recently. Call reports carry balances, not loans made.
  • Which of its commercial real estate is office, retail, industrial or hotel. Call reports do not split the book by property type.
  • How its 1-4 family loans divide between owner-occupied and investor.
  • Whether it makes multifamily loans. No HMDA multifamily loans are on file under this name for 2024 or 2025.
  • Whether it takes brokers. No figure here means no evidence, not a refusal.
