Auto loan is one of the loans that I think the most risky loan. Why? First of all, auto loans require full-coverage insurance which is adding more burdens on you. Second if you car or your transport is out of order, lost or anything happen on it, you can’t use it but you still have to make the payments to the loans every month. The sadness is, it is unlike your house because it is always worth less every month you own it.
ÂÂ
First let us find out exactly who can lend you money for auto loan.
ÂÂ
Dealership
Car loans from a dealership carry heavy interest. You don’t need any good credit, any good payment history to get an auto loan from them. My advice is never look for this kind of loan if you can. If there is any other way, get a lower interest loan.
ÂÂ
Finance companies
Getting a loan from finance companies that are part of auto manufacturing companies like Ford Motor Credit and GMAC is much better than dealership. The interest rate is much more reasonable and if you credit is excellent, there always a special deal for you. The rate is discussible and you will get a better deal from them if you are aggressive enough.
ÂÂ
Bank
I think bank is the best way to go. The rate will generally be better and when the opportunity arises it will probably be easier to refinance this loan.
ÂÂ
Actually buying a car is not recommended especially you don’t have extra cash available every month. You will get into trouble if you lost a job or have trouble with other bills. So if you don’t really need a car, don’t buy it. However, as I know some people buy car in order to feel cool but they are not cool anyway. Until you are able to manage your finance and have a stable financial condition, a car should be treated as transportation only.
ÂÂ
Therefore when you shop around for a car, please remember to shop for the best financing deal. Nowadays we are easy, just open your computer, logon to internet and you can search dozens of information. But you must remember just choose car that you can afford and don’t get any other options that you don’t need and not able to afford.
ÂÂ
So are you in trouble with the auto loans? If you are having trouble making the payments, that’s probably a sign that you have too much income for your car. So you might consider trading your car for a less expensive one. You must act first before the “repo†man pays a visit to you. It will be too late. Before that, you may call you lender and try to work out a solution with them. Maybe a new monthly payment plan or whatever. If you have a house, you may refinancing your house and using the equity to pay the car loan. But you must make decision carefully because sometimes it’s better to lose your car rather than lose your house to foreclosure. So please make sure refinancing your mortgage can save you car without putting your home in jeopardy before going for mortgage refinancing.
