The anatomy of a Kennedale personal loan

Kennedale is a small town of about 10,052 people, and the personal loans written here are mostly unsecured — no collateral, so the lender leans on your credit file.

Shortening the term on a Kennedale loan raises the monthly payment but cuts the interest; lengthening it does the reverse.
