A practical checklist for Freeborn borrowers

Before you apply in Freeborn, a community of about 260, work through these steps:

1. Pull your credit reports first and correct any error before a lender sees the file.
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. Make sure the lender appears in the Minnesota regulator's licence list.
5. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
6. Keep the amount to the expense; an approval is not a reason to take more.
7. Be clear on what the loan is for and how it gets repaid.

The process is identical across Minnesota; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Freeborn holds 260 people.
