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.

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.
- Do you lend where I live, or where my business is?
Their website does not say which area they serve. - How do I become a member, and is there a fee or a minimum deposit?
Credit unions lend only to their members. - What are the smallest and the largest loans you make?
No loan amounts are stated on their website. - 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. - 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. - 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.

How it compares
Computed from public data| Measure | This lender | Compared with |
|---|---|---|
| Total assets (Call Report, 30 Jun 2026) | $1.04 billion | Larger than 72% of the 25 other certified credit unions in California (median $425.5 million). |
| Loans as a share of assets | 63% | Median of the same 25 credit unions: 72%. A higher share means more of its balance sheet is lent out. |
| Loans held, 30 Jun 2025 → 30 Jun 2026 | $555.4 million → $657.3 million (+18%) | Median change of 24 other certified credit unions in California: +4%. Rank by loans held among these 25: 10 → 10. |
| Home loans originated in 2025 (HMDA) | 205 | More than 67% of the 263 other certified CDFIs that reported 3 or more (119 at the median). Volume only; nothing here is an approval rate. |
How these comparisons were worked out
| Measure | Peer group (this lender left out) | Peers | Where this lender sits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Call Report total assets | other certified credit unions in California | 25 | larger than 72% |
| Loans held then vs now | certified credit unions in California reporting both dates | 24 | rank 10 → 10 of 25 |
| HMDA home loans | certified CDFIs with 3+ originations in 2025, nationwide | 263 | more than 67% |
“Larger than X%” = the share of the peer group with a smaller value. Ranks count from the largest. Peer groups use the lender's home state when it has at least 5 peers, otherwise the whole country. Full definitions: methodology.
Same loan type, nearby, lower stated rate
Certified CDFIs whose head office is within 50 miles of this one and whose own website states a starting rate at least 0.5 points lower for the same loan type. Consumer loans count only where both lenders state an APR. A starting rate is not an offer: ask each lender what you would pay, and check that it lends where you are (credit unions also require membership).
- Personal / consumer loans (this lender states from 2.10%): Santa Cruz Community Credit Union from 0.00% (25 mi, read 2 Nov 2026)
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. Assets and loans: FFIEC and NCUA Call Reports (see the loan-mix section). Home loans: FFIEC/CFPB HMDA data. Stated rates: each lender's own website, read on the date shown.
