2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Shop at least three lenders and judge them on APR and total cost.
4. Confirm the Minnesota licence with the regulator named above before committing.
5. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
6. Pick the shortest term whose payment you can comfortably afford.
