Our ESSA Bank & Trust Review

3.5/ 5.0How we rate

ESSA Bank & Trust is a community commercial bank founded in 1916 and headquartered in Stroudsburg, PA, serving businesses across Pennsylvania, Ohio, New York, and Virginia. Its small-business lending lineup includes lines of credit, term loans, equipment finance, commercial real estate financing, and construction finance. One item worth noting: the U.S. Department of Justice reached an agreement with ESSA to resolve lending discrimination allegations in the Philadelphia area — something to factor in if your business operates in that market. Rates, minimums, and financing limits aren't publicly listed, so you'll need to reach out directly to gauge fit. Appears best suited for established businesses looking for a relationship-oriented community bank within its regional footprint.
