Agency lenders
NewPoint Real Estate Capital
NewPoint Real Estate Capital originates, sells and services loans on multifamily, affordable and workforce housing, seniors housing and healthcare property. It is one of a small group of lenders holding Fannie Mae DUS, Freddie Mac Optigo and HUD/FHA MAP and LEAN approvals at the same time.
Alongside the agency programs it runs a proprietary lending platform, including bridge financing for lease-up and value-add business plans and the NewPoint Impact tax-exempt bond, new construction, rehabilitation and stabilized affordable products, plus third-party placement when neither agency nor proprietary capital fits. Fannie Mae Small Loans start at $1 million for properties with five or more units. Live rate sheets and indices sit on the site and refresh every seven to eight minutes.
Every loan the firm originates is serviced in-house from a Dallas-area servicing operation that also services commercial loans for other institutions: a servicing book of $47.5 billion across 1,590 loans on the 11.30.25 figures the site publishes, ranked by the MBA in the top 20 commercial and multifamily servicers. Clients see portfolio reporting through the firm's CRE Servicing Insight (CRESI) portal and file periodic financial reporting through an Asset Guardian portal. NewPoint launched in June 2021 and reports a team of 230 across 17 US office locations.
Manufactured housing is not named among the property types on the firm's own pages, which list multifamily, affordable and workforce, seniors and healthcare. Confirm appetite for that asset class, and current program terms, with an originator before relying on it.
Best for
Multifamily, affordable and seniors housing borrowers who want agency execution from a lender that also services the loan, and who may need bridge or tax-exempt bond financing alongside the permanent debt.
