About lending in California
How borrowing works in California, MD.

Across 1 ZIP codes in and around California, loan.me works with 286+ lenders licensed in Maryland. That includes national banks, credit unions, online direct lenders, and specialty providers for auto, business, and home equity needs. We don't lend directly we shop your profile to the partners most likely to approve you at the best rate available in MD.
Because Maryland regulates APR caps, disclosure timing, and prepayment penalties differently than neighboring states, every offer you see has already been filtered for compliance in California. No bait-and-switch teaser rates, no offers from lenders who can't actually fund a loan in your ZIP.
