A practical checklist for Whiteside borrowers

These steps shape the offer you get in Whiteside, a place of about 61 people:

1. Pull your credit reports first and correct any error before a lender sees the file.
2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Shop at least three lenders and judge them on APR and total cost.
4. Check the Missouri regulator's records to confirm the lender is licensed here.
5. Keep the amount to the expense; an approval is not a reason to take more.
6. Write down the purpose of the loan and your repayment plan before you apply.
7. When debt already feels heavy, a nonprofit credit counsellor is worth a call first.
