Section 184 Loan Lenders List

List Of Section 184 Loan Lenders for 2023

Section 184 Loans / By /

The Section 184 Native American Home Loan is a powerful tool for homeownership. It requires a low down payment, no monthly mortgage insurance, and has no official credit score minimum.

But the most important part: it can be used on or off reservation land.

However, one drawback is that there are only around 140 lenders nationwide that offer the Section 184 Loan. Compare that with thousands that offer FHA loans.

That’s why we created a full list of lenders that offer the program, states they operate in, and a link to their website.

In this article:

Full List of Section 184 Loan Lenders

This list is as of January 4, 2023, as reported by HUD. Lenders change programs and states often, so be sure any lender you contact operates in your state.

Note that the below are not affiliate links – they are just there to be helpful. We don’t endorse any lender. Shop around for the lender that suits your needs.

I can’t find a lender in my state

Note that not every state and county in the U.S. is approved for Section 184 Loans. If you don’t see a lender in your state, it may be because your state is not eligible.

What to look for in a Section 184 lender

These loans can be complex and difficult to close. First and foremost, find a lending company that does these loans regularly. 

But finding a good company is not enough.

You also need an experienced loan officer. The best lending company in the world can’t make up for an inexperienced loan officer.

Ask your loan officer how many Section 184 loans he or she has done in the past three months. If less than three in three months, you might want to find someone else.

These loans consist of many moving parts. You need someone who can coordinate all parties to get your loan closed.

How do you qualify for a Section 184 Loan?

While these loans are easier to qualify for than most mortgages, you must still meet Section 184 Loan requirements. You must:

  • Be a member of a federally-recognized Indian Tribe
  • The Tribe must be approved by HUD to facilitate Section 184 Loans
  • Obtain a lease from the Tribe and Title Status Report from BIA if buying on reservation land
  • Have a credit score of around 580-620+
  • Make a 2.25% down payment
  • Pay Section 184 loan closing costs
  • Have a 43% debt-to-income ratio
  • Have adequate income and employment history
  • Intend to live in the house you’re buying
  • Buy in an eligible area
  • Meet other lender requirements

Section 184 Loan Lenders – FAQ

Why don’t more lenders offer Section 184 Loans?

Many lenders don’t offer Section 184 Loans because they take a lot of specialized knowledge to complete. The lender also needs HUD approval to offer them. Fortunately, there are approved lenders in every eligible state, so buyers have options when searching for the best rate and terms.

Are members of any Tribe eligible?

You must be an enrolled member of a Tribe that is HUD-approved for Section 184 Loans. If your Tribe is not on the list, ask Tribal Leadership to start the approval process with HUD. The process can be found here.

How do you get a Section 184 Loan?

You have to be an enrolled member of a Tribe that is approved for the program. You must buy in a state or county that is approved for the loan as well. If those qualifications are met, then you work with a lender to see if your income, credit, assets, and employment are adequate to qualify for the loan.

Many Section 184 Loan Lenders to choose from

Though this loan is not offered by every lender, there is still probably a good selection of lenders in your state.

Shop around for the best lender for you. And, remember that some lenders are more flexible than others. If you’re denied at one company, find another one.

You could be closer to owning a home than you think.
