How borrowing works locally

A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision.

A lender may ask for proof of address, and a permanent address is a standard requirement for consumer credit. Adding a co-signer puts a second file in front of the lender and adds a second person to the obligation.
