The CDFIs, credit unions, and microlenders that actually say yes — county by county, in two languages. We are not a lender. Nobody paid to be listed. And where a county has no good doors, we say so.

How to read this list.
We do not ask for your name, your email, or your number. Nothing on this page changes based on who you are.
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.
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.
Chicot County is a rural, tight-knit community in the Arkansas Delta where homeownership is both achievable and meaningful. This guide walks you through what home financing looks like here — from who qualifies and what documents you need, to the local lenders, credit unions, and community organizations that actually serve this area. State and federal programs exist to help, but the real starting point is a trusted local intermediary who understands the Delta economy. Take your time, ask questions, and never let anyone rush you into signing anything.

Based in Lake Village, Arkansas. 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.Based in Lake Village, Arkansas. 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 a personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing.The rules where you are.
None of this is set by a lender. Arkansas 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.
- PROPERTY TAX0.61% effective
What Arkansas charges every year on what the house is worth. No lender sets it and it does not go away when the loan does — it is part of the payment from day one.
- MEDIAN HOME, STATEWIDE$204K
The number an appraisal gets read against. A house well under it is often the loan a big bank does not want — which is exactly what the doors above are for.
- STATE INCOME TAX2.0% – 3.9%
It comes off before a lender works out how much of your income can go to a payment.
- COST OF LIVING89
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.

- 02
2 of them are certified by the U.S. Treasury as CDFIs. Lending where a bank will not is their mandate, not a favour.
