Nine Reasons to Consider Using a Personal Loan

Home Improvements

Tap for details

If you do not have enough equity to qualify for a home equity loan or cash-out refinance, an NEA Personal Loan can help.

Debt Consolidation

Tap for details

Streamline your finances by consolidating higher-interest debts into a single, more manageable personal loan that could also help reduce interest payments.

Moving Costs

Tap for details

Paying for moving expenses out of pocket can be extremely challenging. A personal loan can give you the cash you need to handle moving expenses.

Emergency Expenses

Tap for details

Unexpected or emergency expenses can be a potential setback. A personal loan may provide a better interest rate than charging expenses to a credit card.

Large Purchases

Tap for details

If you need to make a large purchase, such as new furniture or a computer, a personal loan from NEA may be a better option than using your savings.

Vehicle Financing

Tap for details

If you need to purchase a vehicle, but may not qualify for a traditional auto loan, a personal loan can help.

Wedding Expenses

Tap for details

A personal loan can be a valuable resource to ensure your dream wedding becomes a reality. A lump sum can provide steady cash flow and avoid high credit card interest.

Medical Bills

Tap for details

A personal loan can offer the financial support you need to cover medical expenses. A fixed repayment plan can help you manage costs and focus on your health without the stress of immediate financial burden.

Payday Loan Alternative

Tap for details

An NEA Advantage loan is the preferred loan with lower interest rates and longer repayment periods. These loans are structured to be more manageable and have more favorable terms compared to payday loans.
