When dealing with financing a used car, the first step is to apply for a loan through the dealership, bank, or a local credit union. There are several factors your lender will look at when you apply, including:
If your credit score is low or you don’t have a strong existing credit history, consider asking a friend or close family member to cosign a loan with you. This can increase your chances of getting approved.
When you get approved for a loan, there are several different auto loan financing options you might need to consider. In terms of used car finance, dealerships may offer in-house financing. You may be able to compare their offer in relation to those offered by a bank or credit union. This can determine if it’s good for your budget and evolving needs. Consider how much money can be put down and calculate how much you will be paying on a monthly basis.
Before finalizing your loan, and wrapping up all things related to used car financing, you might need to negotiate the price. Something that’s often neglected with auto loan financing is the topic of price negotiations. You and the salesperson can go back and forth on a monthly payment and interest rate which works for you. Remember when you close, there’ll be some paperwork and you finally take delivery of your vehicle on your way home.
