3. Line up several pre-qualified offers and let the APR decide.
4. Look the lender up in the Ohio regulator's licence records before you sign.

6. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
7. Check that the monthly payment fits your budget next to your existing obligations.
