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.

   We found no online application on their website.
2. Do you offer free coaching or help preparing my application?
   CDFI certification requires development services, such as training or advice, alongside lending.

   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.
