What to Check

Check the promissory note or loan agreement, borrower eligibility, principal, rate, APR, fee schedule, maturity, amortization method, repayment term, covenant, disclosure, and underwriting file.

Common Mistakes

  • Comparing loans only by stated interest rate instead of APR, fees, term, and repayment schedule.
  • Ignoring whether credit is open-end, revolving, installment, secured, or committed.
  • Treating eligibility for a program as proof of suitability or affordability.
  • Using loan labels without checking the actual borrower obligation.
