What their website says about applying

• Contact a CASE loan specialist and apply today! source
• Apply online in minutes and get a quick decision. source

Phone numbers and addresses are the ones on the lender's own site and the CDFI Fund list. CDFI Atlas does not take applications.

As published on the lender's website on that date, not an offer or a quote. Your rate depends on the lender's review. A missing rate means the pages we read did not state one. For consumer loans we repeat a rate only when the lender states it as an APR (annual percentage rate, which includes fees); otherwise read the lender's own wording and ask for the APR.

Read from 6 pages of the lender's website on 2 Nov 2026. Quotes are verbatim. Extracted with AI help from the pages listed below and checked automatically against them. Not reviewed by a person. Confidence: high. Consumer and business loan pages are thin on geography and business loan amounts; the home page notes a pending merger with Team One Credit Union. Terms change — confirm with the lender before applying.

Based on what their website said when we read it on 2 Nov 2026, and what it left out. Something missing here does not mean they don't offer it: ask.

1. Do you lend where I live, or where my business is?
   Their website does not say which area they serve.
2. How do I become a member, and is there a fee or a minimum deposit?
   Credit unions lend only to their members.
3. What are the smallest and the largest loans you make?
   No loan amounts are stated on their website.
4. Is there a minimum credit score, and do you consider borrowers with little or no credit history?
   Their website does not say what credit history they accept.
5. How long can I take to repay?
   No repayment terms are stated on their website.
6. Do you offer free coaching or help preparing my application?
   CDFI certification requires development services, such as training or advice, alongside lending.
7. What documents will you need from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
   Their website describes some application steps (above); ask for the full document list.

Write down the answers, who you spoke to and the date, and ask for the terms in writing before you sign.

An office shows where the lender has a branch, not where it lends or whom it lends to. Credit unions serve members only; check who can join. For the ZIP-code search, credit-union offices are placed at the centre of their ZIP code (approximate).

Loan mix (balances on 30 Jun 2026)

Balances are loans outstanding on the report date, not loans made during the year. A category with no balance does not mean the credit union never makes that kind of loan. Credit unions lend to members only; check who can join.

Originated loans only; applications that were denied, withdrawn or not accepted are not counted. HMDA publishes each loan amount as the middle of a $10,000 band, so totals and medians are approximate. Counts under 3 are not shown. How we match lenders.

For comparison, not an offer and not a rating. Past records show what this lender did, not what you would be offered; your rate depends on the loan and on the lender's review. Peer groups and sources: methodology. SBA 7(a) & 504 FOIA data as of 30 Sep 2026. Assets and loans: FFIEC and NCUA Call Reports (see the loan-mix section). Home loans: FFIEC/CFPB HMDA data.

The SBA's public loan data lists 28 SBA-backed approvals for CASE Credit Union in fiscal years 2020–2026 (October 2019 to September 2026):

• 21 7(a) loans as the lender: $8.2M in total (gross amount approved), median $400,000
• 7 504 projects as the third-party (first-lien) lender: $4M in total (its own third-party loan amount), median $357,500

By fiscal year: FY2020 4 · FY2021 1 · FY2022 0 · FY2023 7 · FY2024 11 · FY2025 3 · FY2026 2.

How this lender was matched in the SBA files: 504 third-party lender name: same name, state and city (SBA lists “CASE CU”); NCUA charter 61908, found through the RSSD ID in NCUA records (SBA lists “CASE CU”).

Approved is not the same as paid out: an approved loan can be reduced or never drawn. SBA lists the lender each loan is currently assigned to, which can differ after a merger or loan sale. CASE Credit Union may also make loans outside SBA programs, which are not counted here, and SBA Microloans are not in these files. For 504 projects, the CDC amount is the SBA-backed portion and the third-party lender amount is that lender's own first-lien loan.
