2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Get several pre-qualifications and compare APR side by side before choosing.
4. Confirm the lender holds a Virginia licence by checking the regulator named above.
5. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
