A pre-application checklist for Kenton

These steps shape the offer you get in Kenton, a place of about 226 people:

1. Pull your credit reports first and correct any error before a lender sees the file.
2. Price the payment first with our personal loan calculator before any lender quotes you.
3. Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
4. Look the lender up in the Delaware regulator's licence records before you sign.
5. Choose a term you can live with; stretching it lowers the payment but raises total interest.
6. Borrow only what the purpose requires, not the maximum you are offered.
7. Decide the purpose and how you will repay it before approaching any lender.

None of these steps is Kenton-specific: the same Delaware licensing and disclosure rules reach all 226 residents.
