1. Order your free credit reports and dispute anything inaccurate — it is the cheapest way to move the rate you are offered.
2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
4. Check the Indiana regulator's records to confirm the lender is licensed here.
5. If debt is already a struggle, talk to a nonprofit credit counsellor before borrowing more.
6. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
7. Make sure the new payment leaves room in a budget you already keep.
