What to do before borrowing in Berlin

These steps shape the offer you get in Berlin, a place of about 7,534 people:

1. Get your credit reports, dispute what is wrong, and only then start shopping.
2. Run the numbers on the personal loan calculator so you know the payment before you apply.
3. Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
4. Look the lender up in the New Jersey regulator's licence records before you sign.
5. Be clear on what the loan is for and how it gets repaid.
6. If the balances are already a strain, seek nonprofit credit counselling before adding a loan.
7. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.

The process is identical across New Jersey; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Berlin holds 7,534 people.
