Before you apply in Leola

Before you apply in Leola, a community of about 465, work through these steps:

1. Pull your credit reports first and correct any error before a lender sees the file.
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. Make sure the lender appears in the Arkansas regulator's licence list.
5. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
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.

In Leola as elsewhere in Arkansas, the written terms — not the advertisement — are what count for its 465 residents.
