Legal Subsidies
Legal fees in financial loans can amount to thousands of dollars. Check if your bank or financial institutions offer legal subsidies to help ease your expenses. Better still if you have lawyer friends who can offer their services pro bono. Nevertheless, don't miss out on these fees! Sometimes banks may also stipulate that their subsidies are partially or fully refundable should client terminate the contract prematurely. It is thus important to look through all the fine prints of a loan contract document before venturing to put your ink on it.
Set reminders
Banks are known to bet their dollars on consumers who don't check their loan tenure and terms carefully. As such, make sure that you remember to check when your bank lock in period is over. The lock in period is the period that early repayment penalty are effected. This is a period where it is not worth while to move institutions or banks.
Set a phone reminder to inform you of the terms of the loans and the lock in period. Be sure to check the market or have your broker inform you of the latest financial development. This ensures that you are always paying the best loan rates.
