Chicago is one of the most expensive cities in which to live. That said, it is no surprise that when you first move to Oswego, Montgomery, or any of the other major urban areas, you may need extra cash to get by until you can get that first paycheck.
Cover Moving Expenses and Living Expenses for the First Two Weeks to a Month
Depending on the cost of your apartment, a personal short-term loan can cover your moving and living expenses for the first two weeks to a month. If you complete your moving by renting a truck and packing it up yourself, and your apartment is on the low end of rent costs in your area, then the largest short-term loan amount could cover your expenses for a month. Even if a loan covers only two weeks’ worth of expenses, it will help until your first paycheck comes in.
Cover Emergency Expenses
Maybe your car is vandalized in the parking lot, or another emergency situation that you have not planned for has occurred. If any of these unexpected expenses occur, it helps to know that personal short-term loans are there for you. It is especially helpful to know that when you are new to your Chicago home and not sure where you can turn for help.
