What a Mason borrower is actually offered

Most loans made to Mason's 2,116 residents are unsecured, so nothing is pledged and the lender relies on your credit history. Federal Truth in Lending rules require a Mason lender to disclose the APR and finance charge before you sign. Because the payment is fixed, the total cost of a Mason loan is knowable in advance — unlike a revolving card balance.

Before you apply in Mason

Before you apply in Mason, a community of about 2,116, work through these steps:

1. Get your credit reports, dispute what is wrong, and only then start shopping.
2. Use the loan calculator to test the payment on your intended amount and term.
3. Collect three or more offers and compare them on APR, not on the advertised rate.
4. Look the lender up in the Texas 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. Do not borrow more than the expense calls for, even if a lender approves a larger amount.
7. Be clear on what the loan is for and how it gets repaid.
