Loan Criteria

The proposed project must:

  • Help people with low and moderate incomes (PDF) per standards set by the U.S. Dept. of Housing and Urban Development.
  • Have a long-term benefit to people with low and moderate incomes.
  • Have a demonstrated source of income to repay the loan to the Loan Fund.
  • Have a governing board of representatives from the community.
  • Attract other resources to the effort.

How to apply

Talk with us. Each project is different, and the first step is always to talk with us. Contact Julie McConnell, Community Facilities Loan Organizer, at (603) 224-6669, ext. 215 or jmcconnell@theloanfund.org. She will determine whether your project is appropriate for a loan from the Loan Fund. If the Loan Fund is not the right source to help, we will try to provide referrals.

What happens next?

Getting organized. If appropriate for consideration, the applicant nonprofit organization submits a letter of request, with supporting materials as requested, to the Loan Fund. There is no application form.

Loan review. The application is reviewed by staff members and the Loan Fund's Loan Review Committee, which comprises community representatives from the areas of banking, real estate, business, housing, law and related fields.

Decision. Once a decision has been made, a staff member will contact the applicant with the decision and any conditions.
