1. Order your free credit reports and dispute anything inaccurate — it is the cheapest way to move the rate you are offered.
2. Model the payment on the calculator before a lender models it for you.
3. Pre-qualify with three or more lenders, then compare the APR rather than the interest rate.
4. Make sure the lender appears in the Illinois regulator's licence list.
5. Look for an origination fee or prepayment penalty in the written disclosure.
6. Test the payment against your current bills before you commit.
