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 (Jun 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.

THE GUIDE

This guide is written for solo contractors, small business owners, and real estate investors in Grays Harbor County, Washington who want to understand their financing options without the confusion of fine print or high-pressure sales. We focus on the local and regional lenders, CDFIs, and community programs that actually serve this area — not just national programs. Whether you have a Social Security Number, an ITIN, or are just starting to build credit, there are real pathways here for you. Origen Capital is a directory, not a lender — we never collect your personal information.

CDFICDFI-certifiedChehalis Tribal Loan Fund

Based in Oakville, Washington. A community development financial institution, certified by the U.S. Treasury to lend where a bank will not, and used to a file that is not clean.

BEST FORCommunity lending where a bank has already said no, and working capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.
CDFICDFI-certifiedTaala Fund

Based in Taholah, Washington. Treasury-certified as a CDFI, which is a mandate rather than a courtesy: reaching borrowers the mainstream market passes over is the job.

BEST FORWorking capital, equipment and payroll for a small business, and community lending where a bank has already said no.
CREDIT UNIONCDFI-certifiedGreat Northwest Credit Union

Based in Aberdeen, Washington. A credit union: no shareholders to satisfy, and a habit of reading a whole story rather than a single score. It is CDFI-certified.

BEST FORWorking capital, equipment and payroll for a small business, and a personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing.
CREDIT UNIONNewrizons Credit Union

Based in Hoquiam, Washington. A credit union — owned by its members rather than by shareholders, which is exactly what changes the conversation after a bank has said no.

BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and buying, repairing or refinancing a home.
RIGHT HEREWashington, and the rules that apply in Grays Harbor County.
8 DOORS ABOVE

Everything below is set by Washington, and it reads the same in every county in it. The 8 marks above are this county's own doors — who opens one is decided by them, not by the state.

The rules where you are.

None of this is set by a lender. Washington 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 TAX0.471% – 1.75% B&O tax on gross

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

  • CORPORATE INCOME TAXNone (B&O tax)

    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 TAX6.5% state · 2.9% 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 HERETechnology & Cloud · Aerospace & Boeing · Agriculture & Apples

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