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.
- 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 auto 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 farm loans and commercial real estate 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. - Do you need collateral, a business plan or a minimum time in business?
Their website does not say what they require. - How long can I take to repay?
No repayment terms are stated on their website. - What documents will you need from me, and how long does a decision usually take?
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 |
|---|---|---|
| SBA approvals, FY2023–24 → FY2025–26 | 3 → 1 | Rank among the 6 certified CDFIs in Tennessee with SBA approvals in either period: 3 → 3. |
| Total assets (Call Report, 30 Jun 2026) | $595.1 million | Larger than 59% of the 17 other certified banks and bank holding companies in Tennessee (median $325.6 million). |
| Loans as a share of assets | 71% | Median of the same 17 banks and bank holding companies: 71%. A higher share means more of its balance sheet is lent out. |
| Loans held, 30 Jun 2025 → 30 Jun 2026 | $405.4 million → $421.9 million (+4%) | Median change of 17 other certified banks and bank holding companies in Tennessee: +9%. Rank by loans held among these 18: 7 → 7. |
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 Tennessee with SBA approvals FY2023–2026 | 5 | rank 3 → 3 of 6 |
| Call Report total assets | other certified banks and bank holding companies in Tennessee | 17 | larger than 59% |
| Loans held then vs now | certified banks and bank holding companies in Tennessee reporting both dates | 17 | rank 7 → 7 of 18 |
“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: FDIC cert 9168, found through the RSSD ID on the CDFI Fund list (SBA lists “Wayne County Bank”); 504 third-party lender name: same name, state and city (SBA lists “Wayne County 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. Wayne County 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.
