Not necessarily. Checking offers often uses a soft inquiry that doesn't affect your score, though a lender may do a hard pull before final approval.

An installment loan is money you borrow and repay in fixed, scheduled payments, usually every two weeks or monthly, until it's paid off.

Lenders in our network offer installment loans from $100 to $5,000 to Redmond borrowers who qualify.
Do I need to visit a store in Redmond?
No. You can request offers online from a phone or computer. Some lenders, especially title lenders, may ask you to visit a location or send photos of your vehicle.
