Your real odds
RMMFI has made 515 loans totaling $1.7M since 2008, meaning a modest but real volume of deals per year.
They are a CDFI, so this is a loan product, not a grant—repayment is expected.
Competition is not disclosed, but their mission focus on underserved entrepreneurs means qualified applicants in their target communities are more likely to be considered.
