FUNDING TYPE

CDFI, Loan

CAN YOU GET THIS?

You need to be working in affordable housing, community development, or related economic development in Florida (or Georgia).

NLP finances multi-family and single-family housing projects, charter schools, healthcare facilities, daycare centers, grocery stores, and other real estate-based economic development. Nonprofits, local governments, and small businesses are all eligible borrowers.

YOUR REAL ODDS

Competitiveness is unclear from public information, but NLP is a lending consortium backed by multiple banks, suggesting meaningful capital capacity.

As a CDFI lender rather than a grant program, approval depends on your project's underwriting strength and alignment with affordable housing or community development goals. Loan amounts vary and are structured per project, as shown by a $4M construction loan example.

WHAT IT TAKES

Review NLP's loan products to identify which fits your project — 1-2 hours
Contact NLP directly via email or phone to discuss your project — 1 week
Submit a loan inquiry and go through underwriting — Several weeks

WORTH KNOWING

NLP also administers SHIP, CDBG, and HOME funding alongside private loans, so if your project qualifies for public subsidy programs, NLP may be able to layer multiple funding sources.
