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.

The 10 lenders that made the most home loans in Jasper County in 2025, buying and refinancing together. The mark on each bar is the whole county's denial rate (25.2%). Home loans only: first-lien, owner-occupied, one-to-four-unit homes, as reported under the federal HMDA law. Small lenders below its reporting threshold — many of the credit unions above — don't report, so their loans aren't counted here. Rates are for loans made.

Based in New York, New York. 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. It lends SBA microloan money.
BEST FORCommunity lending where a bank has already said no, and working capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.Based in Greenville, South Carolina. Treasury-certified as a CDFI, which is a mandate rather than a courtesy: reaching borrowers the mainstream market passes over is the job. It lends SBA microloan money.
BEST FORWorking capital, equipment and payroll for a small business, and community lending where a bank has already said no.Based in Aiken, South Carolina. A CDFI — a mission lender, not a branch network. It is measured on who it reaches, which is why a thin file is not the end of the conversation.
BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and working capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.Based in Charleston, South Carolina. An SBA microloan intermediary — a nonprofit that lends federal microloan money directly, in the sizes a bank does not bother with.
BEST FORWorking capital, equipment and payroll for a small business.Everything below is set by South Carolina, and it reads the same in every county in it. Who opens the door is not: 3 of the 8 above will take an ITIN instead of a social security number.
The rules where you are.
None of this is set by a lender. South Carolina 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 TAX0.53% effective
What South Carolina 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$299K
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 TAX0% – 6.2%
It comes off before a lender works out how much of your income can go to a payment.
- COST OF LIVING95.3
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.
