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.
This guide helps solo contractors, first-time buyers, and small real-estate investors in Perry County, Mississippi understand their home financing options. It highlights local credit unions, CDFIs, and ITIN-friendly lenders that actually serve the area, alongside Mississippi-specific programs that can lower your costs. Federal loan programs are useful tools, but your local intermediary — a community lender who knows Perry County — is often the most important relationship you can build. Take your time, compare options, and watch out for the warning signs of predatory lending covered at the end.

Based in Hattiesburg, Mississippi. 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.Based in Richton, Mississippi. 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. Mississippi 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 TAX0.75% effective
What Mississippi 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$174K
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 TAX4.4% flat (2025)
It comes off before a lender works out how much of your income can go to a payment.
- COST OF LIVING86.3
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.
