VEHICLE FINANCING 101

 

Have questions about how financing works? We've got you.

When you submit a credit application, lenders evaluate several factors that determine the terms and rates you receive. Here's what they look at -- and how our finance team helps guide you every step of the way.

 

Credit Score

Your credit score tells lenders how much risk they're taking on. A higher score usually translates to better interest rates and more flexible financing options.

 

Debt-to-Income Ratio

Lenders want to ensure your income comfortably supports your new payment. They review how much of your income is already allocated toward existing debts to help predict repayment stability.

 

Down Payment Amount

A larger down payment often means more favourable terms. If you can put more down upfront, banks typically reward that with better rates.

 

Quality of the Vehicle

Newer or higher-quality vehicles help lenders feel secure. In the rare case of default, the vehicle holds more value -- meaning better loan conditions for you.

 

Length of Loan

Shorter loan terms generally mean less risk for the lender and better interest rates for the customer. If your budget allows for a shorter term, you'll often save money in the long run.

TOP 6 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD NOT USE YOUR LINE OF CREDIT TO PAY FOR A VEHICLE

 

  1. Interest rates fluctuate with prime, meaning unpredictable payments, unpredictable interest, and unpredictable timelines.
  2. Lines of credit are meant for emergencies and investment opportunities -- not vehicle purchases. You don't want to be caught without a safety net.
  3. Many lines of credit are secured against your home. If considered a second mortgage, a missed payment can put your property at risk.
  4. Lines of credit are typically interest-only. Paying interest without building equity leaves you with long-term debt and no asset.
  5. Your line of credit is a demand note -- the bank can call it back at any time, with or without reason. If you can't pay it off instantly, they can use their "Right of Offset" to collect.
  6. Our Hunt Chrysler Finance Team represents all major banks and negotiates the best terms on your behalf. Fixed-term open loans save you money and help you upgrade sooner.
