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.
- 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. - Do you offer free coaching or help preparing my application?
CDFI certification requires development services, such as training or advice, alongside lending. - 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.
CDFI Fund awards
CDFI Fund database, 3 Nov 2026$2.6 million in 3 awards from the U.S. Treasury's CDFI Fund, 2021–2024 (CDFI Program, Financial Assistance; CDFI Rapid Response Program; Small Dollar Loan Program).
| Round year | Program | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | CDFI Program, Financial Assistance | $625,000 |
| 2024 | Small Dollar Loan Program | $148,882 |
| 2021 | CDFI Rapid Response Program | $1,826,265 |
These are awards and investments made to the institution itself to build its capital and capacity. They are not loans to borrowers, and an award does not mean the lender has money available for a particular loan today.

How it compares
Computed from public data| Measure | This lender | Compared with |
|---|---|---|
| SBA approvals, FY2023–24 → FY2025–26 | 3 → 0 | Rank among the 10 certified CDFIs in Texas with SBA approvals in either period: 5 → 8. |
| Total assets (Call Report, 30 Jun 2026) | $555.2 million | Larger than 71% of the 14 other certified credit unions in Texas (median $169.6 million). |
| Loans as a share of assets | 74% | Median of the same 14 credit unions: 74%. A higher share means more of its balance sheet is lent out. |
| Loans held, 30 Jun 2025 → 30 Jun 2026 | $525.6 million → $412.7 million (-21%) | Median change of 14 other certified credit unions in Texas: +5%. Rank by loans held among these 15: 5 → 5. |
How these comparisons were worked out
| Measure | Peer group (this lender left out) | Peers | Where this lender sits |
|---|---|---|---|
| SBA approvals then vs now | certified CDFIs in Texas with SBA approvals FY2023–2026 | 9 | rank 5 → 8 of 10 |
| Call Report total assets | other certified credit unions in Texas | 14 | larger than 71% |
| Loans held then vs now | certified credit unions in Texas reporting both dates | 14 | rank 5 → 5 of 15 |
“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.
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).

How this lender was matched in the SBA files: 504 third-party lender name: same name, state and city (SBA lists “Resource One CU”); NCUA charter 68439, found through the RSSD ID in NCUA records (SBA lists “Resource One 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. Resource One 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.
