When you have a low credit score, the world of auto financing can seem confusing. Terms like "subprime," "bad credit loans," and "Buy Here Pay Here" are often used, but what do they really mean for you? A low-credit or subprime auto loan is simply a financing product designed for individuals with FICO scores typically below 620. While these loans may come with slightly higher interest rates to offset the lender's risk, they are a powerful tool for rebuilding your credit. Every on-time payment you make is an opportunity to demonstrate your creditworthiness and can be reported to the major credit bureaus, helping to raise your score over time.
Our dealership offers several avenues for financing to accommodate different needs:
We have worked hard to make our financing process as straightforward and stress-free as possible. We want you to feel confident and informed every step of the way.
When financing with low credit, choosing the right vehicle is crucial. It is important to select a car that is not only reliable but also fits comfortably within your monthly budget. Our team is here to help you make a smart choice. We will guide you toward vehicles that have a lower total cost of ownership, including factors like fuel economy, insurance costs, and potential maintenance. We have a fantastic selection of affordable used cars, including many high-quality options under $15,000 and under $20,000. By choosing a vehicle with a manageable payment, you set yourself up for success and ensure you can make your payments on time, which is the key to rebuilding your credit score.
Considering a trade-in? Trading in your current vehicle can be a great way to lower your monthly payment and reduce the total amount you need to finance. You can use our easy online tool to value your trade and get an instant estimate.
Absolutely. We work with many individuals who have gone through bankruptcy. We have specific lenders who offer bankruptcy auto loans because they understand that a bankruptcy is often a necessary step to a fresh financial start. As long as your bankruptcy has been discharged, we can work to find you a great financing option.
The down payment amount can vary depending on several factors, including the price of the vehicle and your specific credit situation. While a larger down payment can help lower your monthly payments and improve your chances of approval, we work with many low and even zero-down payment options. Our finance team will work with you to find a down payment amount that you are comfortable with.
When you apply for a loan, a "hard inquiry" is placed on your credit report, which can cause a small, temporary dip in your score. However, our process is designed to minimize this impact. We use a "soft pull" initially to pre-qualify you, and then we strategically submit your application to the lenders most likely to approve you, reducing the number of hard inquiries.
Yes, we frequently help self-employed individuals and those with income from sources like Social Security, disability, or retirement funds. Instead of traditional pay stubs, we can typically use documents like bank statements or tax returns to verify your income and secure your loan approval.
You can purchase a high-quality vehicle from our wide selection. Unlike some dealerships that limit bad credit buyers to older, high-mileage cars, we believe everyone deserves a reliable vehicle. You will have access to our entire inventory of dependable used sedans, SUVs, and trucks, and we will help you find the one that best fits your needs and approved loan amount.
