Our analysis, 2025
Brewery Credit Union, a Milwaukee credit union in the public record since 1990, made 28 home loans in 2025, most of them refinances, almost all in and around Milwaukee.
It made 28 loans in both 2024 and 2025, and 27 in 2023. Similar lenders (credit unions making between half and twice as many loans) fell 3%, while the whole market rose 10%. It filed no reports from 2018 to 2022; those are gaps in the record, not years without lending.
Refinances were 67.9% of its loans, purchases 14.3% and home improvement 10.7%. Every loan was conventional. Its typical loan was $70,000, against $95,000 at similar lenders.
It lends in 1 metro and 3 counties. In Milwaukee it ranked 230 of 510 lenders, a market led by Landmark Credit Union and Summit Credit Union. In 2025 it also made loans in non-metro Wisconsin for the first time.
More than half its loans, 53.6%, went to low- and moderate-income (LMI) neighborhoods, against 17.6% at similar lenders, and 57.1% to LMI borrowers, against 31.9%. Both are higher than at nearly all its peers. On 28 loans a few borrowers can move these shares, so they are too small to read much into.
Similar lenders: same lender type, originations between half and twice the lender's in the data year. Written from the 2025 HMDA data and checked figure by figure against it.
FIG. 1 — LOANS ORIGINATED, 2023–2025
Originated means the loan was made: applications denied, withdrawn or not accepted are not counted. Years with no HMDA report from this lender are left out: since 2020 a bank making fewer than 100 closed-end loans a year need not report. Brewery Credit Union took 28 applications in 2025.
