We refresh each list as its agency publishes. No listing is paid.

Based in La Crosse, Wisconsin. 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 FORBuying, repairing or refinancing a home, and working capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.Based in Fond Du Lac, Wisconsin. A credit union: no shareholders to satisfy, and a habit of reading a whole story rather than a single score.
BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and buying, repairing or refinancing a home.Everything below is set by Wisconsin, and it reads the same in every county in it. The 3 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. Wisconsin 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 TAX7.9%
What Wisconsin charges on top of federal. It is the first thing a lender reconciles when your numbers do not match your tax return.
- CORPORATE INCOME TAX7.9%
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 TAX5.0% state · 0.43% 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 HEREDairy & Agriculture · Manufacturing & Paper · Tourism & Breweries
Wisconsin's three biggest sectors. A local lender reads your file against them — a trade that serves these is a trade they already understand.
