The Bourbon borrowing checklist

These steps shape the offer you get in Bourbon, a place of about 1,529 people:

1. Order your free credit reports and dispute anything inaccurate — it is the cheapest way to move the rate you are offered.
2. Test your amount and term in the personal loan calculator first.
3. Get several pre-qualifications and compare APR side by side before choosing.
4. Make sure the lender appears in the Missouri regulator's licence list.
5. Read the disclosure for an origination fee and any prepayment penalty before signing.
6. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
7. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
