THE SMALL PRINT

How to read this list.

No agenda

We do not ask for your name, your email, or your number. Nothing on this page changes based on who you are.

Based here vs. serves here

A door is headquartered here when its head office sits inside the county line. The rest are based elsewhere and keep a branch you can walk into. We list both, and we label which is which.

Where this comes from

Every institution on this page comes from public federal data — the CDFI Fund certified list (Aug 2026), NCUA credit union data (Mar 2026), and the SBA microloan intermediary list (Sep 2026) — plus a short national tier we verified by hand. We refresh each list as its agency publishes. No listing is paid.

CREDIT UNIONCDFI-certified · Minority depositoryFirst Financial Credit Union

Based in Albuquerque, New Mexico. A credit union — owned by its members rather than by shareholders, which is exactly what changes the conversation after a bank has said no. It is CDFI-certified, and it is a minority depository.

BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and buying, repairing or refinancing a home.
RIGHT HERENew Mexico, and the rules that apply in Grant County.

The rules where you are.

None of this is set by a lender. New Mexico sets it, and it applies the same in every county in the state — which is why it is worth knowing before you knock on any of the doors above.

  • BUSINESS TAX5.9%

    What New Mexico charges on top of federal. It is the first thing a lender reconciles when your numbers do not match your tax return.

  • CORPORATE INCOME TAX4.8% – 5.9%

    It depends on how the business is registered. A sole proprietor almost never pays it — worth knowing which side of that line you are on before you apply.

  • SALES TAX5.125% GRT · 2.78% avg local

    What you collect on a job, and what your materials cost. It is the gap between a bid that holds and one that does not.

  • WHERE THE MONEY IS HEREOil & Gas · Federal Labs & Defense · Film & Media

    New Mexico's three biggest sectors. A local lender reads your file against them — a trade that serves these is a trade they already understand.
