A: We examine your stability, ability, and willingness to repay the loan, which we attempt to assess using budgets and credit reports, among other items. Budgets help us to ensure that the loan is affordable for you. Another consideration is our history with a borrower, many of whom are loyal, repeat customers who come back year after year. We look at each application independently. We want our relationship with you to be a happy and trusting one, so we give you all the facts about your loan upfront and as clearly as possible.
