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.
Bastrop County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Texas, sitting just east of Austin along the Colorado River. Whether you are buying your first home, investing in a rental property, or building on rural land, this guide walks you through the financing options that actually serve this county — including local credit unions, ITIN-friendly lenders, CDFIs, and Texas state programs. Federal programs like FHA and USDA are real tools here, but the local intermediary layer is where most Bastrop County residents will find the most accessible and community-aware help.

None of this is set by a lender. Texas 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 TAX1.68% effective
What Texas 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$298K
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 LIVING92.7
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here than it does nationally.
