Steps to take before a Painted Post loan

Before you apply in Painted Post, a community of about 1,729, work through these steps:

1. Check all three credit reports for mistakes, because an error you fix now is a lower rate later.
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 New York licence with the regulator named above before committing.
5. Read the disclosure for an origination fee and any prepayment penalty before signing.
6. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
7. Weigh a shorter term's higher payment against the interest it saves.

The process is identical across New York; what changes is your credit file, not the fact that Painted Post holds 1,729 people.
