Title loans in Chicago
The largest market in the state, though the rate cap has thinned the lender field considerably.
Illinois applies a statewide APR ceiling to consumer loans, including vehicle-secured lending. The cap substantially changed which lenders operate in the state and what they offer, but loans made within it are among the most affordable vehicle-secured credit available in the Midwest.
Bad credit does not have to stop you. Pricing is capped, so the real question in Illinois is whether your income supports the payment — not what your credit report says.
