Avant Review

CONSUMER WARNING:

Avant is one of the largest online lending platforms to focus on consumers with low credit scores. The Chicago-based company focuses on the “typical middle-class American consumer,” says Avant president Adam Hughes.
According to the company, about half of Avant’s borrowers take out loans for debt consolidation.

Avant’s annual percentage rate ranges from 9.95 to 35.99 percent. The annual percentage rate is fixed rather than a variable rate, so rates are not subject to change, meaning the rates will never go up or down. These numbers are average and aren’t very competitive interest rates when compared to other top personal loan companies. Factors used in determining your rate include credit history, max loan amount chosen, and length of the loan. Filling out the company’s basic online application will give you the opportunity to view a preview of what APR to expect for your personal loan.

Avant has only been in business since 2012. With limited time in business compared to other online lenders, you may feel more comfortable taking your business to a more experienced lender. You can look at Avant reviews below to see how customers feel about the lender to help you make your decision as well.

Avant has a minimum average credit score of 650 in place, meaning that a customer with a score lower than this will not even be considered and will need to improve the score before he/she will qualify for an Avant personal loan. Those with subpar credit rather than good credit will likely have better luck with a different company. Also, the better your credit score, the better loan rates Avant will offer you.
