Steps to take before a Kirkman loan

Before you apply in Kirkman, a community of about 60, work through these steps:

1. Order your free credit reports and dispute anything inaccurate — it is the cheapest way to move the rate you are offered.
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. Verify the lender's Iowa licence with the regulator listed on this page.
5. Pick the shortest term whose payment you can comfortably afford.
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 Iowa; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Kirkman holds 60 people.
