Your real odds
No public approval rate exists, but First Eagle has deployed $106.8 million in community development loans over the past five years.
As a CDFI, they weigh community impact and borrower circumstances over standard credit profiles, and loan amounts are not publicly specified, so a direct conversation is the only way to gauge whether your ask fits.

Worth knowing
First Eagle builds decisions around personal relationships, so contacting a loan officer directly before submitting anything formal gives you a real advantage over applicants who come in cold through a form.
