In the future, please describe the results you are trying to achieve
or at least describe the semantics of the function from elsewhere that
you are trying to emulate. I had no idea what the ISNLL() function of
MySQL does; on a quick web search, it looks like you can replace:
isnull(expression)
with:
(expression) IS NULL

In PostgreSQL perhaps:
(case
when
(("s"."Funding_Date" = '')
and (("s"."Actual_Close_Date") is null
or ("s"."Actual_Close_Date" = '')))
then
'RPG_INV'
when
((("s"."Funding_Date") is null
or ("s"."Funding_Date" <> ''))
and (("s"."Actual_Close_Date" = '')
or ("s"."Actual_Close_Date") is null))
then
'Builder_Inventory'
else 'Owner_Inventory'
end) AS "Lot_Status",
