Steps to take before a Anthon loan

Complete these steps first when you borrow in Anthon (531 residents):

1. Get your credit reports, dispute what is wrong, and only then start shopping.
2. Run the numbers on the personal loan calculator so you know the payment before you apply.
3. Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
4. Look the lender up in the Iowa regulator's licence records before you sign.
5. Borrow only what the purpose requires, not the maximum you are offered.
6. Decide the purpose and how you will repay it before approaching any lender.
7. When debt already feels heavy, a nonprofit credit counsellor is worth a call first.

The process is identical across Iowa; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Anthon holds 531 people.
