Rates and terms they state

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. - What is the APR, including fees, on your small-dollar emergency loans and home repair loans?
Their website does not state an APR. The APR includes fees, so it is the number to compare. - What interest rate and fees should I expect on your commercial real estate loans and small-business loans?
Their website does not state a rate for this. - 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. - 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$3.6 million in 3 awards from the U.S. Treasury's CDFI Fund, 2022–2024 (CDFI Equitable Recovery Program; CDFI Program, Financial Assistance; Small Dollar Loan Program).
| Round year | Program | Amount |
|---|---|---|
| 2024 | CDFI Program, Financial Assistance | $725,000 |
| 2024 | Small Dollar Loan Program | $383,223 |
| 2022 | CDFI Equitable Recovery Program | $2,478,839 |
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 |
|---|---|---|
| Total assets (Call Report, 30 Jun 2026) | $786.5 million | Larger than 62% of the 8 other certified credit unions in Washington (median $525.7 million). |
| Loans as a share of assets | 76% | Median of the same 8 credit unions: 79%. A higher share means more of its balance sheet is lent out. |
| Loans held, 30 Jun 2025 → 30 Jun 2026 | $588.1 million → $600.8 million (+2%) | Median change of 8 other certified credit unions in Washington: +7%. Rank by loans held among these 9: 4 → 5. |
| Home loans originated in 2025 (HMDA) | 143 | More than 57% 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 Washington | 8 | larger than 62% |
| Loans held then vs now | certified credit unions in Washington reporting both dates | 8 | rank 4 → 5 of 9 |
| HMDA home loans | certified CDFIs with 3+ originations in 2025, nationwide | 263 | more than 57% |
“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. Peer groups and sources: methodology. Assets and loans: FFIEC and NCUA Call Reports (see the loan-mix section). Home loans: FFIEC/CFPB HMDA data.
