AgCarolina Farm Credit, FLCA, a Raleigh-based non-bank lender, has more than doubled its home lending since 2020 with conventional purchase loans in rural North Carolina, a tenth of them on manufactured homes.
Manufactured homes and no government loans
Manufactured homes made up 10.2% of its loans; the typical similar lender, an independent non-bank lender making between half and twice as many loans, made none. Every loan was conventional, while its peers typically had 16.0% FHA loans (insured by the Federal Housing Administration). Purchases were 70.1% of its lending.
Big growth, then a pause
It made 90 loans in 2020 and 200 in 2024. In 2025 it made 197, down 2%, about where similar lenders were, while the whole market grew 10%. Its dollar volume rose to $72.8 million.
Poorer neighborhoods
Some 30.2% of its loans were in low- and moderate-income neighborhoods, against 18.0% at similar lenders, a higher share than more than four in five of them. Its largest market is non-metro North Carolina, where it ranked 75 of 762 lenders. It has lent in North Carolina since 2016, when it first reported, and added Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, in 2023.
Similar lenders: same lender type, originations between half and twice the lender's in the data year.
