4 Credit Tips to Help Secure a Car Loan

Communicate Your Situation

Being open and honest while working with lenders is a great way to start the process. We all appreciate honesty, and being upfront and clear about your current situation saves time for everyone involved. Remember, bad credit situations with no cosigner happen all the time, so let us know about your situation and we'll do our best to help you through it

Bring Proof of Income

Coming prepared with proof of income and other documents can speed up the process and make it easier to get the high-quality loan you deserve. Proof of income can include pay stubs, bank statements, deposit slips, and more.

Save for a Down Payment

Especially with bad credit loans, the more money you put down, the better. This will demonstrate that you are responsible and capable of bringing in a steady income, and may make more lenders willing to work with you.

Start Improving Your FICO Score

Although this is more of a long-term technique, you should start taking steps to improve your personal credit score. By being responsible with your debt load and making the right moves, you'll start to improve your credit, and it might happen quicker than you thought!
