Frequently Asked Questions
What credit score do I need for a personal loan?
While credit score is one factor we consider, we look at your complete financial picture including income stability, debt-to-income ratio, and local community ties. We work with borrowers across a range of credit profiles.
How quickly can I get approved for a personal loan?
Most loan decisions are made within 24-48 hours of receiving a complete application. This is possible because our underwriting team is located right here in Colorado, not at a distant corporate headquarters.
Can I use a personal loan for any purpose?
Yes, personal loans can be used for almost any legitimate purpose including debt consolidation, home improvements, medical expenses, education costs, or major purchases. We’ll discuss your specific needs during the consultation process.
What documents do I need to apply for a personal loan?
Our standard ProSign credit application covers most personal loans and includes all basic personal and financial information needed. For larger loans over $75,000, additional documentation including recent tax returns, Personal Financial Statement, and Personal-Global Cash Flow Analysis may be required. We’ll provide specific guidance during your consultation.
How do I safely submit my loan application?
Use our secure ProSign portal powered by Epic River for all loan applications. Never email sensitive financial information. We will never request personal or account information via email – any such requests are phishing attempts and not from our bank personnel.
Do you offer pre-approval for personal loans?
Yes, we can provide pre-qualification to help you understand your borrowing capacity before you make major purchase decisions. This can be especially helpful when shopping for vehicles or planning large expenses.
Are there any prepayment penalties?
Most of our personal loans do not have prepayment penalties, allowing you to pay off your loan early without additional fees. Specific terms will be outlined in your loan agreement.
