Car Financing Basics

Albert Matthews's Blog | Car Financing Basics

Are you a first-time car buyer and nervous about financing? For any first-time buyer out there, car financing can sound like a puzzling term to hear. However, it is really not as complicated as it sounds. It is not even something that should be feared. Financing a vehicle is how most people can afford the newly purchased car, truck, van, or SU.

Direct lending is another term used for car financing. Financing can be done through a banking institution, finance company, credit union, or through the financing department at a dealership. Car financing is essentially borrowed money, whatever route you choose.

Determining the total price of the car and all its fees is the first step in the financing process. You then need a financial loan in order to follow through with the vehicle purchase. This is the basic premise of financing and why car financing should not be intimidating to first-time buyers. The agreed amount you will pay monthly or bi-weekly during your loan term then becomes your vehicle payment. In your loan over a period of time, you agree to pay the amount financed, plus a finance charge.

So whether you have never used a financial loan to purchase a vehicle or are new to the car market, hopefully, this article summed up the process easy for you.

Please contact me if you have any finance questions, I would love to help put you in the car that is right for you!
