What we don't know

  • Whether any of these lenders is taking new loans today.
  • What they charge or require beyond the rate and term that HMDA reports.
  • Loans on office, retail, industrial or hotel property. HMDA covers dwelling-secured loans only.

A metro area or county is named for a year only when the public file holds 5 or more multifamily loans there that year, so a small place is never exposed by a count.

HMDA covers dwelling-secured loans. Amounts are the midpoints of $10,000 bands, and each loan has a year, never a date.

Lenders that merged or stopped filing are left out.

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.
