A pre-application checklist for Luzerne

Complete these steps first when you borrow in Luzerne (111 residents):

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. Shop at least three lenders and judge them on APR and total cost.
4. Look the lender up in the Iowa regulator's licence records before you sign.
5. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
6. Pick the shortest term whose payment you can comfortably afford.
7. Keep the amount to the expense; an approval is not a reason to take more.

The process is identical across Iowa; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Luzerne holds 111 people.
