• A lender cannot change the terms after you sign without your agreement.

How to Choose a Reputable Provider in Revelstoke

A fair comparison uses one amount, one term, and the same questions for every lender. Change the term and the ranking can change with it.

• Whether the lender is a bank, a credit union, or an alternative lender.
• Whether the rate is discounted for automatic payments.
• The cost of any optional insurance added to the loan.
• What happens to the rate if you refinance later.
• The APR, not just the advertised rate.
• The total cost of borrowing in dollars.

Take your time with the comparison. A rushed decision on the amount or the term is harder to undo than a slow one.

• Whether the payments are fixed or variable.
• What a missed payment costs and how it is reported.

Ask for the disclosure document before you sign, and keep it alongside the agreement for your records.
