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.
This guide is written for solo contractors, small real-estate investors, and everyday residents of Teller County, Colorado who want to understand their personal financing options. It highlights local credit unions, CDFIs, and community lenders that actually serve the Pikes Peak region — not just national programs. Whether you have a Social Security number or use an ITIN, there are real pathways here. Take your time, compare your options, and never feel pressured to sign anything quickly.

BEST FORA personal loan, or building a credit file from nothing, and buying, repairing or refinancing a home.The rules where you are.
None of this is set by a lender. Colorado 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.
- STATE INCOME TAX4.4% flat
What the state takes off what you earn, before anyone works out what payment you can carry.
- SALES TAX2.9% state · 4.9% avg local
What you pay on top of every purchase. On a small loan for a repair or a tool, this is a real part of the total.
- MEDIAN HOUSEHOLD INCOME$88K
Half the households in the state earn less than this. A lot of the programs above use that number to decide who qualifies.
- COST OF LIVING105.5
National index, where 100 is the country's average. Under 100 means your money goes further here.
