Party Information – Loan consulting agreements should state the parties’ names and addresses. If the consultant or client is a business, the agreement should list the company’s information instead.

  • Assessing the client’s creditworthiness.
  • Suggesting suitable loan options.
  • Assisting with the preparation and submission of loan applications.
  • Communicating with lenders to resolve delinquent loans.

Contract Term – Setting the contract term allows the parties to determine when the consulting relationship begins and ends. The term can expire on a specific date or the occurrence of an event.

Compensation – The agreement should state the consultant’s fees, payment schedule, and preferred payment method.

Expenses – If the consultant is entitled to reimbursement for service-related costs, such as credit checks or loan application fees, the agreement should detail these reimbursable expenses.
