Personal Loan help

Looking for suggestions of a place to lower the rate my wife and I have on a personal loan. The loan was an unsecured consolidation loan. The rate is 11.9%, $26,000, 60 mos. obtained at our local credit union.

We have tried discover personal loans as they do a “soft pull” only and the rate is a little higher.

Any other places you recommend to look up?

Our scores are mid 700’s, HH income 125k,
Two auto loans, home loan, and the above listed loan..

Thank you!

I got a personal loan today from Prosper with an interest rate of 6.86%. It was only for $6K, but it was for 60 months...I really do like Prosper.

Re: Personal Loan help

And for the actual application Prosper does a "hard" pull. But only a soft pull for the pre-qualify.

Thank you George. I just tried their Soft Pull application and they have decent rates but when I get up to the 25k amount they are much higher : (

Re: Personal Loan help

Someone earlier today mentioned that Lending Tree gave them a better rate than Propsper did....so it may be worth a try.
