The Frackville borrowing checklist

Before you apply in Frackville, a community of about 3,883, work through these steps:

1. Check all three credit reports for mistakes, because an error you fix now is a lower rate later.
2. Run the numbers on the personal loan calculator so you know the payment before you apply.
3. Line up several pre-qualified offers and let the APR decide.
4. Confirm the lender holds a Pennsylvania licence by checking the regulator named above.
5. Be clear on what the loan is for and how it gets repaid.
6. When debt already feels heavy, a nonprofit credit counsellor is worth a call first.
