SHOPPING FOR A LOAN
The smartest way for getting a
cheap personal
loan is to do
research. This entails checking out rates, terms and deals from different
lenders. All of the available loan providers will offer different lending
programs with varying terms and conditions. Shopping around will help you
become aware of what all your available options are and what to expect in
terms of rates and costs. Also, do you fully understand what the
requirements for
borrowing with no collateral are?
Online loans are safe.
Doing research will also help you
avoid becoming a victim of predatory
lending. There are
advance fee loan scams that you must be aware of. You are more likely to make wise decisions and choices when knowing
what range of interest rates to anticipate and what types of offers are on
the market.
During your diligence, you will discover some very attractive loan offers.
Some lenders market low rates, sometimes even 0%! However, when these loans
are thoroughly examined, you will probably discover all sorts of extra fees
and hidden charges, i.e. origination costs, tie ins, penalties for early
payments, and/or closing fees. In addition, the most appealing offers are
usually only available to applicants with excellent credit scores, 750+.
Think about it, have you ever
applied for a credit card offer advertising an
interest rate of 4.9%, only to get approved at a rate of 19.9%?
Making sure that you credit score is the best it can be will ensure that you
receive the best
loan rates and terms. You should obtain a
credit report copy and make sure all of the information is accurate and
up-to-date. If it is not, you will need to take steps to
disputing and removing all inaccuracies and errors. This entails
contacting the reporting agency with a formal letter. They will have 30 days
to investigate and respond by either removing the information on providing
you with proof that the info is indeed accurate.
When examining your credit report it is also possible that you may discover
that your credit score is lower than expected. If this is the case, you
should explore what options you have for
improving credit ratings in a few
months time. Learn more about the
effects of bad
credit on credit.
It is also important to note the extra charges that are commonly associated
with personal loans. These costs can be just as costly as the loan itself,
defeating the purpose of seeking out a good rate. For example, nowadays it
is very typical to be presented with loan repayment protection
insurance. Even though there are several benefits in specific instances, in
most cases you will never need it. Therefore, there is not point in paying
extra for this expensive coverage.
