What shapes a Lankin personal loan

Lankin is a small community of about 103 people, and the personal loans written here are mostly unsecured — no collateral, so the lender leans on your credit file. Because pricing is borrower-level, two people in Lankin can be quoted different APRs on the same amount and term. A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Lankin loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
