Before you hand your details to a lender in Astoria, where the population is near 891:

1. Get your credit reports, dispute what is wrong, and only then start shopping.
2. Use the loan calculator to test the payment on your intended amount and term.
3. Shop at least three lenders and judge them on APR and total cost.
4. Make sure the lender appears in the Illinois regulator's licence list.
5. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
6. Check that the monthly payment fits your budget next to your existing obligations.
7. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
