Questions to ask when you contact them

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. What are the smallest and the largest loans you make?
    No loan amounts are stated on their website.
  2. What is the APR, including fees, on your auto loans and home repair loans?
    Their website does not state an APR. The APR includes fees, so it is the number to compare.
  3. What interest rate and fees should I expect on your farm loans and commercial real estate loans?
    Their website does not state a rate for this.
  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. Do you need collateral, a business plan or a minimum time in business?
    Their website does not say what they require.
  6. How long can I take to repay?
    No repayment terms are stated on their website.
  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.

Balances are loans outstanding on the report date, not loans made during the year, and they include loans the bank bought. Shares are of gross loans and leases. The change over the year includes loans gained through mergers or bought from others. A category with no balance does not mean the bank never makes that kind of loan; ask the bank.

SBA loans approved

SBA data as of 30 Sep 2026

The SBA's public loan data lists 1 SBA-backed approval for Fidelity Bank in fiscal years 2020–2026 (October 2019 to September 2026):

  • 1 504 projects as the third-party (first-lien) lender

By fiscal year: FY2020 1 · FY2021 0 · FY2022 0 · FY2023 0 · FY2024 0 · FY2025 0 · FY2026 0.

By program

  • 504 projects (as the third-party lender) (1, 100%)

How this lender was matched in the SBA files: 504 third-party lender name: same name, state and city (SBA lists “Fidelity Bank”).

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. Fidelity Bank 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.
