A pre-application checklist for Dinosaur

Before you hand your details to a lender in Dinosaur, where the population is near 246:

1. Pull your credit reports first and correct any error before a lender sees the file.
2. Price the payment first with our personal loan calculator before any lender quotes you.
3. Gather at least three pre-qualified offers and line up the APR, not the headline rate.
4. Confirm the Colorado licence with the regulator named above before committing.
5. Write down the purpose of the loan and your repayment plan before you apply.
6. If debt is already a struggle, talk to a nonprofit credit counsellor before borrowing more.
