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. Look the lender up in the Indiana regulator's licence records before you sign.
5. When debt already feels heavy, a nonprofit credit counsellor is worth a call first.
6. Read the disclosure for an origination fee and any prepayment penalty before signing.
7. Make sure the new payment leaves room in a budget you already keep.
