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.
Buying a home in Coffee County, Tennessee is very achievable, whether you work for yourself, are building credit, or use an ITIN instead of a Social Security Number. This guide walks you through what home financing actually means, who qualifies locally, what paperwork you'll need, and which local lenders and community organizations can help you get there. We also point out warning signs to avoid so your money and your family stay protected.

None of this is set by a lender. Tennessee 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 TAX0.56% effective
What Tennessee 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$310K
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 TAXNone
It comes off before a lender works out how much of your income can go to a payment.
- COST OF LIVING90.8
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.
