Market snapshot
These figures describe Construction & Real Estate Lending (3.1.3), the segment that Construction Loan Origination sits within — not Construction Loan Origination on its own.
FragmentationFragmentedEstimate
No discrete Census NAICS code — construction and real-estate lending sit within commercial banking (522110) and real-estate credit (522292), so the segment is not separately sized by the Census Bureau.
