A Secured Loan/Installment Loan is a loan where titled property is secured as collateral and the loan is paid back in steady and predictable monthly installments.

Every payment puts some money towards the interest and some money towards the principle balance of the loan. Our loans are generally no longer than 12 months. Even if you have a 12-month loan, you are free to pay it off early with no prepayment penalty. If one of our competitors has a lower rate, we will beat it!

A Signature Loan/Unsecured Loan is a loan is where nothing taken as collateral and the loan is paid back in steady and predictable monthly installments. These have much stricter requirements and a higher interest rate. See our "Loans and Requirements" page for more information.

Our annual percentage rates start at 150%. Some circumstances allow for an even lower interest rate, like in the case of a long-time customer, high collateral to loan value, or other factors.

Interest is calculated daily, so if you only have the loan for 18 days – you only pay 18 days worth of interest. 

YES! Simply bring in your contract or show us the current rate and we will write your loan at a much lower interest rate!

We accept cash, check, money order, cashier's check, and credit/debit cards. You can stop by in person, call us, text us, leave your money order/cashier's check/personal check in the drop box, or mail it to us.

We lend on any property that is titled by the DMV. The title must be in the borrower’s name or the cosigner’s name.

We are unable to lend on collateral that is being used as a residence. So an RV used for camping is ok, but if it is currently being lived in we can not lend on it.

We suggest you borrow responsibly and not borrow for frivolous things. Here are 5 examples of reasons why we think you should not borrow money:

• Just to have some spare cash – why not?
• Getting yourself a birthday present
• Starting in a pyramid scheme
• Gucci
• Speculating in the stock market

Sometimes taking out a title loan is the easiest solution to a problem. Here are 4 examples of when it might be a good idea to borrow money:

Our average time is about 30 minutes.

No, the owner of the title can apply as a co-signer.

Yes! As long as you have a source of income (disability, social security, etc) you may be eligible for a loan.

Many of our competitors have these penalties, but we are proud to say that Ideal Lending does not have this penalty. In fact, we encourage our borrowers to pay their loans off early.

We release the lien and give the title back to you as soon as the loan is completely paid off. We'll even mail it to you!

Cars, trucks, and semis are kept by the borrower while the title loan is active. Motorcycles, boats, and campers are held as collateral at one of our locations until the loan is paid off.

We require the title if we are doing a Secured Loan/Installment Loan. You can fill this form out and send it to the DMV for a duplicate title. 

No, we can loan against titles from any state.

If the title says "or" we just need one of those paries to be present. If the title says "and", we require all parties to be present. 

Yes! However, we require a "cross collateral", meaning if you default on one loan you automatically default on the other.
