Lender Directories

Browse Commercial Real Estate Lenders

Two kinds of institution, three directories, each built from the institution's own regulatory filings rather than from a marketing list. Banks file with the FDIC and credit unions with the NCUA, so they are counted and ranked separately rather than merged into one list.

Banks by State

51 states

Banks with a branch in the state and a commercial real estate book of $100m or more, from the FDIC Call Report and Summary of Deposits. Each page shows the size of the book, how fast it is growing and who to call.

Banks by Major Market

26 metro markets

The same bank data cut by metropolitan area rather than by state, for a deal in a market that straddles a state line or sits in one metro inside a large state.

Credit Unions by State

50 states

Every federally insured credit union reporting member-originated commercial real estate on its NCUA 5300 Call Report, with the balance it reports, whether it also does construction, and its regulatory single-borrower ceiling.

Multifamily Lenders by State

48 states

Banks that reported apartment loans on their June 2026 federal call report and have a branch in the state. Each page separates banks based in the state from national lenders with offices there, because the reported balance is a national figure and no state split is published.

Construction Lenders by State

48 states

Banks and credit unions whose June 2026 call report shows construction and development lending at 2% or more of their commercial real estate book — a meaningful share rather than an incidental position — with a presence in the state. Credit unions are listed separately, with the most they may lend to one borrower.

What these directories are, and are not

Every figure comes from a filing the institution made to its own regulator — the FDIC for banks, the NCUA for credit unions. Nothing here is a quote, a rate sheet or a stated appetite, and an institution appearing in a directory is not a statement that it will lend on your deal.

Balances are reported at institution level and are not apportioned to a state or a market, so a lender active in several places shows its whole book on each page where it appears. Where a figure is calculated rather than published — a credit union's single-borrower ceiling, for instance — the page says so and shows the derivation.

If you would rather describe a deal and be matched against the whole database at once, use Find Lenders.

A worked example of what these figures can and cannot show: Which Texas banks added the most to their CRE books in the year to June 2026.
