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.

THE GUIDE

Buying a home in Lincoln County, Oregon — whether in Newport, Lincoln City, Toledo, or along the rural coast — is achievable with the right local support. This guide walks you through what home financing means, who qualifies (including ITIN holders), what paperwork to gather, and which local lenders, credit unions, and CDFIs actually serve this county. Oregon has strong state-level programs that can reduce your costs, and knowing how to avoid predatory lenders is just as important as finding a good one. Take your time, ask questions, and use the local resources listed here.

RIGHT HEREOregon, and the rules that apply in Lincoln County.
3 DOORS ABOVE

Everything below is set by Oregon, 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. Oregon 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 TAX0.86% effective

    What Oregon 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$503K

    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 TAX4.75% – 9.9%

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

  • COST OF LIVING114.1

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