Unsecured Loan Module 4: Loan Options Obtained without collateral Also called a ‘signature loan’ Typically has higher interest rates than secured loans Examples I.O.U. – signed agreement, typically between friends or family Credit card loan

Secured Loan Module 4: Loan Options Protect by an asset or collateral Often the item being purchased IS the collateral Due to the collateral, interest rates are typically lower than an unsecured loan Examples Auto Loan Home Loan or Mortgage Debt Consolidation Loan

Things to Consider When Buying a Car Module 4: Loan Options Things to Consider When Buying a Car New car loans tend to have lower interest rate, but may be harder to qualify for Don’t be afraid to loan shop for the best rates; don’t assume what the dealership offers you is the best deal for you As a general rule, loans with shorter terms are better because you will pay less in interest over the life of the loan Visit www.edmonds.com to help calculate the car loan amount you can afford

Example of Interest vs. Term Module 4: Loan Options Example of Interest vs. Term Loan Amount Term (Months) Interest Rate Monthly Payment Total Interest Paid $15,000 36 3.24% $437.81 $761 48 3.39% $334.61 $1,061 60 3.49% $272.81 $1,369 72 3.74% $232.90 $1,769 Typically, the shorter the terms, the lower the interest rate.

Before Signing Module 4: Loan Options Pre-Payment Penalties – monetary penalties should a borrower payoff the loan earlier than was originally agreed upon You may be able to negotiate it to be removed before you sign Predatory Lending – the practice of using unfair, deceptive and abusive tactics in lending If you feel you have been a victim of predatory lending or you want to research a potential lender, go to www.usa.gov/consumer for state-specific consumer protection information Read the small print and don’t be afraid to negotiate off or reduced fees.

Before Signing a Lease Module 4: Home Options Do not put money down unless you’re sure you want the unit Calculate ALL anticipated costs of the unit (gas, electricity, parking, etc.) when determining whether you can afford it Review the agreement to make sure the landlord has a responsibility to respond to emergencies, including a point-of-contact and time frame for response

Before Buying Consider: Module 4: Home Ownership Before Buying Consider: Do you have a budget and do you stick to it? Do you have a good credit history and score? Do you have steady income and a stable job? Do you plan to stay in the property for at least 3-5 years? Do you have savings for a down payment and closing costs? If yes, get pre-qualified with a lender – this will tell you how much the bank is willing to lend you and allows you to be competitive with other buyers If the answer is no, you can set these as goals going forward.
