• Member must submit a diploma received within the last 12 months and a current pay stub source
• For More Information Contact Our Mortgage Department source
• Talk to an EPIC Call Center Rep at source
• Must be able to provide income verification for all members on the loan. 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.

• Low or damaged credit considered For members with credit scores under 600 and limited income source
• Membership required Be a member in good standing with EPIC Federal Credit Union. source
• Income limit applies limited income as defined by the U.S. Department of Health & Human Services source

Only rules the lender's own pages state. Other requirements may apply.

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. No service area or geographic eligibility was stated on the pages fetched. 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. Do you offer down-payment help, and is a homebuyer education course required?
   CDFI home loans often come with homebuyer education or down-payment help; their website does not say.
5. 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.

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.
