Inside a Donora personal loan

Most loans made to Donora's 4,500 residents are unsecured, so nothing is pledged and the lender relies on your credit history. Two numbers drive a Donora loan: the APR, which includes fees, and the term, which decides how long you keep paying. A longer term lowers the monthly payment on a Donora loan but raises total interest, so the smallest payment is not the cheapest loan.
