A rural lender
Some 22.1% of its loans were guaranteed by the Department of Agriculture's Rural Housing Service (RHS), the highest share among similar lenders, whose middle was 0.8%. Those peers are bank-owned non-banks making between a quarter and four times as many loans. Most of its loans, 87.1%, financed a purchase. It lends in 89 counties across eight states, most of all in non-metro Illinois, where it ranks 29th of 572 lenders.
