hafiz cakep 2 weeks ago

A low credit score doesn’t have to stand in your way if you want to get a personal loan to cover an emergency or consolidate your debts.

Borrowers with bad credit, which is a FICO score below 630, may need to put in some extra work to qualify for a personal loan. But taking these steps can not only help you get approved, they could also get you a cheaper interest rate.

Clean up your credit, shrink your debt

Before you apply for a personal loan, get a copy of your credit report to see what the lender will see on it, says Adrienne Ross, a Washington-based certified financial planner. You can get one free copy of your report from all three major credit bureaus at annualcreditreport.com.

Lenders and creditors use your credit score and the details on your credit report to determine your creditworthiness, or the risk that they might take on by lending you money. If you have a bad credit score, lenders may view you as more

When an unexpected expense comes your way or you’ve been wanting to make a larger purchase, choosing between a personal loan or a credit card can be difficult. There are distinctions between the two, and knowing when to use your credit card or take out a personal loan can prevent financial hardship down the road.

If you need to take out a large lump sum of money for a project or want to pay off high-interest credit card debt, then you may want to consider a personal loan. If you’re making a smaller, everyday purchase, a credit card is the better option.

Here’s a look at the key differences between a personal loan and a credit card and how to determine which option is best for you.

How much does a personal loan affect your credit score?

A personal loan can help or hurt your credit rating depending on these factors. (iStock)

Outstanding personal loan balances hit a record $305 billion last year, according to a study from credit bureau Experian. The report also found that personal loan debt is growing at a faster rate than auto loan, mortgage, credit card, and student loan debt, with the average balance of a personal loan clocking in at $16,259.

Still, taking out a personal loan can be a smart decision for some consumers, particularly for people who are going to use the money to consolidate high-interest debt at a lower interest rate, make necessary home repairs, or cover an emergency medical bill. Credible can help compare personal loan companies (and, hopefully, land you some of the lowest rates for what you’re looking for).
