How borrowing works locally

Disclosure requirements mean the cost of borrowing must be stated before an agreement is signed.

A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached. A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit.
