1. Start with the credit file: order the reports, fix the errors, then apply.
2. Test your amount and term in the personal loan calculator first.
3. Pre-qualify with three or more lenders, then compare the APR rather than the interest rate.
4. Verify the lender's Texas licence with the regulator listed on this page.
5. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
6. Weigh a shorter term's higher payment against the interest it saves.
7. Do not borrow more than the expense calls for, even if a lender approves a larger amount.
