Not every bank will do a loan that low that is why it's a wierd bank. 50K is the lowest I've had from a little old lady.

Shop your small local banks.

In today's world of Dodd-Frank, I normally won't do a deal for less than $100K. Prior to Dodd-Frank the lowest mortgage was $48,000. Conversley the largest deal I ever did in my 46 years was $12million.

I think the lowest I've seen a loan for was around 80K. But usually in that price range I'm dealing with cash buyers.

When I started in the business in 1985, the median home price was about $75K.   I did a lot of $39,900 and $49,900 sales... many of those were conventional.

if the loan was too small, I'd have them take a 90 day note and after closing, get an equity line.... a couple of bucks for closing costs....

I have one 100X yours and I suspect it is a bogus account also. No phone number just a bank I never heard of either.

$50K and I believe it was with Wells Fargo.  I think BOA does them as well as some of the other local lenders.

Suspicious amount. My lowest in recollection was $175,000. Much lower in CA you'd have to go to a manufactured home lender and be buying on, as they are about the only thing below $150,000 out here currently.
