Hey neighbours, are you thinking of borrowing money by taking out a loan?

Before you do - there's a few things you really need to know about. Take a minute and read the tips below to ensure you're asking the right questions and getting the best loan for you.

1. Shop around! Interest rates, fees and terms must be made available to you by the lender. Make sure you compare details and make an informed decision about what loan is best for you.

2. Choose a lender. Did you know that when you borrow money to buy something, you don’t have to borrow from the same person who is selling the goods?

3. Understand. Whoever is loaning you the money must ask questions to make sure you can afford the loan. They also need to help you understand the key terms of the loan.

4. Be prepared. You'll need to provide your lender with information to show that you can afford to repay the loan. This might include proof of income and expenses so make sure you have it ready.

Don't get on Auntie's bad side and do your research! You can find more information here.

Good Afternoon,

It's Axl here, but you may know me better as The Odd Guy.

Did you know that our taxi service isn't the only service we offer? With our knowledge and expertise, we also offer Wellington Tours, Office Administration and Event Planning.

Our Event Planning is going well. It kicked off at Eddy's Bar and Cafe three weeks ago with our weekly Thursday night Pub Quiz.

So if you want an event planned or that nitty gritty admin work to be pushed aside, then call us, and we can take care of the work for you, to allow you to enjoy more of what you like and less of what you don't like :)

Either call (020) 4010 7437 or email us info@theoddguy.co.nz

We accept cash, credit/debit card, fortnightly invoices and bank deposit.
