4. Verify the lender's Indiana licence with the regulator listed on this page.
5. Decide the purpose and how you will repay it before approaching any lender.
6. If debt is already a struggle, talk to a nonprofit credit counsellor before borrowing more.
7. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
