The doors in Dunklin County.

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.

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 (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.

CDFICDFI-certifiedFirst Malden Bancshares, Inc.

Based in Malden, Missouri. 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.
CDFICDFI-certifiedFirst Missouri Bank of SEMO

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

RIGHT HEREMissouri, and the rules that apply in Dunklin County.

The rules where you are.

None of this is set by a lender. Missouri 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 TAX1.01% effective

    What Missouri 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$234K

    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% – 4.7%

    It comes off before a lender works out how much of your income can go to a payment.

  • COST OF LIVING88.6

    National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.
