Buying a new car or a used car need not give you headaches
anymore. Getting auto loans has become easy; you can now choose
from online auto loan lending networks or get an auto loan from
your car dealer. And there are many auto loan options available
to choose from.
The competition to provide auto loans has boiled down to better,
and faster, deals for car loan borrowers. So if you apply for an
auto loan today you can probably drive home in your dream
machine by the evening!
Choosing the correct auto loan requires some homework on your
part - you should be willing to do some research. Not that it is
difficult; you can easily do it on the Internet.
First and foremost, you need to evaluate your credit status. You
need to ascertain how much of a car loan you can afford. This is
important before deciding on to the car to buy. Auto loans
require monthly payments, so it should be an amount that fits
into your monthly budget. Many auto loan sites have auto loan
calculators which can give an idea as to how much your auto loan
is going to cost you each month. Once you have worked this out,
you can get ready to apply for your auto loan.
Again, the Internet is a great help here. There are thousands of
auto loan sites where you can apply for an auto loan online.
Completing those forms is usually a breeze: just fill in a few
fields and click on the 'Submit' button!
Generally the online lenders offer interest rates 1-2 per cent
lower than that offered by the auto dealers. That money saved
can be used to bear the other costs associated with buying your
car.
Online auto loan forms ask for your basic banking details, your
job status, and residence proof. Online applications are
processed immediately by lenders in the network near to your
place of residence. Approvals usually take less than an hour,
and more important, on most sites this is a free service. Better
still, an approval does not put any obligations on you about
taking a loan from that lender.
If you have a clean credit status and a co-signer, then consider
your loan semi-approved! The good thing about auto loans is that
you can get one even if you have a less than perfect credit
history. Most auto loan lenders offer bad credit auto loans.
However, some lenders may charge you higher interest rates and a
larger down payment because of your bad credit status. Some
lenders also restrict the choice of cars models if you have a
bad credit status.
Once the loan is approved, you will get loan offers from the
lenders and you can choose the loan that you want.
The main criteria for choosing an auto loan should be the rate
of interest and the loan period. The loan period for an auto
loan is usually three to five years. You can ask for a longer
period on your auto loan, say, seven years. But it is always
better to repay the loan within a shorter period; that will put
a lower interest burden on you. You must also find out from the
lender if they allow faster repayment of auto loans without
penalty charges. If they do, you can opt to repay the loans
faster a few months later (depending on your income) and save on
the loan charges.
Auto loans are available for new and used cars. Usually, the
loan charges on used car loans are higher than that for new car
loans. Research the various auto loan options available and
always read the fine print of the loan agreement before you
decide on your auto loan.
