Emergency loans in Portland Oregon area.

The city of Portland and Multnomah County has dozen of lenders that can provide short term, emergency loans. The application can be done in person or online, and the cash loans can help pay for any number of bills that the resident may have. Funds can help with housing, rent, medications, gasoline, car repairs or even emergency travel; there are no restrictions.

While the better the applicant’s credit score and/or income is, the lower interest rate they may get, the fact is even Portland Oregon families with bad credit can apply for an emergency loan. Applicants may borrow hundreds or in some cases thousands of dollars for paying their bills. The different options in the region include payday lenders and check cashing stores; loans from pawnbrokers; non-profit community action agencies; and also car title companies. All of these private (or non-profit) lenders may provide the cash a resident needs to help them with their critical bills.

Types of loan companies in Multnomah County and Portland

There are several, some that are high risk and some that are more financial aid focused. It is recommended to call around to inquire at one or more for information on their emergency cash loans. Note most have Spanish speaking, Chinese, Japanese, Korean and other languages on staff.

  • -Payday – salary advance – They give cash to people with a source of income, including a job, SSI disability, pension, or some other source. The loan is technically an advance, and comes with high fees and interest rates
