New York, NY — January 9, 2026 — Lument announced today that it has been ranked the top U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD)/Federal Housing Administration (FHA) lender for Multifamily Accelerated Processing (MAP) transactions by loan count for HUD’s fiscal year (FY) ended September 30, 2025.
Lument led the field in multifamily closings with 44 closed transactions totaling $675 million, 8% of total market share. This marks the fifth year in a row that Lument was the top FHA MAP lender by loan count.
“As investor appetite improves and demand for long-term, fixed-rate capital strengthens, FHA continues to deliver one of the most attractive financing solutions available to multifamily owners,” said Lument CEO James Flynn. “We expect this momentum to build as HUD advances efforts to streamline and modernize its programs. Lument is well positioned to help clients capitalize on that progress and support the long-term health of multifamily, affordable, and seniors housing communities nationwide.”
When combining MAP and LEAN (seniors housing and healthcare) closings, Lument ranked third in loan count with 62 closings totaling nearly $920 million. In addition, Lument maintained its third-place ranking for low-income housing tax credit (LIHTC) affordable housing transactions.
Overall, HUD/FHA provided $8.1 billion in MAP closings, a 48% increase over FY 2024’s total of $5.5 billion. Activity under Section 233(f) for the refinance or purchase properties rose by 53.5% year-over-year, while 241(d)(4) construction and substantial rehabilitation volume increased 37.9% compared to 2024.
