A practical checklist for Akron borrowers

Before you apply in Akron, a community of about 1,113, work through these steps:

1. Get all three reports, dispute anything wrong, and keep the corrected file for your applications.
2. Test your amount and term in the personal loan calculator first.
3. Pre-qualify with three or more lenders, then compare the APR rather than the interest rate.
4. Verify the lender's Indiana licence with the regulator listed on this page.
5. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
6. Borrow only what the purpose requires, not the maximum you are offered.
7. Be clear on what the loan is for and how it gets repaid.
