Steps to take before a Henderson loan

Before you apply in Henderson, a community of about 13,464, work through these steps:

1. Start with the credit file: order the reports, fix the errors, then apply.
2. Use the loan calculator to test the payment on your intended amount and term.
3. Pre-qualify with three or more lenders, then compare the APR rather than the interest rate.
4. Check the Texas regulator's records to confirm the lender is licensed here.
5. Write down the purpose of the loan and your repayment plan before you apply.
6. When debt already feels heavy, a nonprofit credit counsellor is worth a call first.
7. Check the disclosure for fees that raise the true cost above the quoted rate.
