Tips for Financing a Used Car

Research and Preparations Are Key

As you get ready to finance a used car, make sure to do your research. Key things to investigate are:

• Your credit score
• Your trade-in vehicle’s value
• Available deals and incentives at our dealership

It’s important to know your credit score ahead of time, as this can have an impact on the payment plans you qualify for. To determine the value of your trade-in vehicle, use our online Value Your Trade tool. Then use that number to help you set your budget.

Our dealership posts many of our available finance specials online for drivers to explore and consider while they shop. So, take a look over our specials page to see if any of these may work with your future payment plan.

From there, you’ll want to find the vehicle you plan to purchase and apply for finance.

Buying a Used Car

Our dealership carries a wide inventory of used vehicles, so you can start your shopping adventure on our website. Once you’ve found a model you plan to purchase and want to explore payment options with a team member, apply to get preapproved with our finance application.

Getting preapproved will give one of our team members enough time to get familiar with you and your unique needs. They’ll look over your information and start crafting potential payment options before you even set foot in our dealership.

From there, you’ll find that the process for financing a used car is not too different from financing a new car. Our team member will help you build a plan with rates from one of our local lenders. We’ll use all our available resources to help get you a monthly payment you feel good about!
