Car Buying Tips
May 18, 2012 - 18:43
The first thing that you should consider is how much you can afford. A general rule of thumb to follow is a monthly used car loan payment that is the littlest of 15% of your monthly income before taxes or 50% of your income, less your expenses, including the new car loan payment.
Auto finance companies may also take into consideration other vehicle costs such as insuring the vehicle, maintaining the vehicle, and fueling the vehicle. If the used car that you want to purchase has an affordable monthly payments but high insurance, maintenance, and fuel cost, the lender may determine that you cannot afford such a vehicle.
Consumers with a poor Fico score pay higher finance rates than consumers with Fico scores above 700. If you have a Fico score below 700 we recommend buying a car that meets your basic transportation needs. Wait until your Fico score improves before buying a more expensive automobile.
AutoLoansInIdaho.com also suggests choosing the quickest repayment term allowed by the auto finance company. If you credit score increase during the loan it is much more likely that you will be able to trade in the vehicle and quality for a better interest rate.
When you owe more on your used car trade in than it is worth you should think about buying a lower priced new car with money back incentives. The excess amount that you owe when compared to the used car value will be added on to the new loan. A money back incentive will lower the amount you will have to ad to the new car loan and by focusing on less expensive cars with payments you can afford you may be able to pay the car off quicker and avoid adding addition money on the next car you trade in.
The best way to end this cycle is to keep your current vehicle until it is paid off, use a large cash down payment to cover the negative equity, or buy something affordable that you can pay off more quickly. It should be noted also that it is unlikely that you can trade out of a car loan with negative equity and buy a car with a lower monthly payment.
