Borrowing in Teslin, Yukon

How borrowing works locally

A revolving product charges interest on the outstanding balance, while an instalment product charges a fixed schedule of payments.

Adding a co-signer puts a second file in front of the lender and adds a second person to the obligation. A deposit or trade-in reduces the amount financed and therefore the interest charged over the term.
