Before you hand your details to a lender in Gallitzin, where the population is near 1,490:

1. Get your credit reports, dispute what is wrong, and only then start shopping.
2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Get several pre-qualifications and compare APR side by side before choosing.
4. Check the Pennsylvania regulator's records to confirm the lender is licensed here.
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. Weigh a shorter term's higher payment against the interest it saves.
