No money down auto loan is a financing option for those buyers who have no cash to bring to the transaction. They are mainly meant for individuals with good credit. They are generally used by those who cannot afford a down payment, or simply don’t want to block their cash in a vehicle that depreciates.

A good credit score is the gateway to accessing a no money down loan easily. Many car dealers and auto financing institutions have no money down programs for buyers with a good credit score. Having a trade-in makes it even easier to get a no money down loan from a dealer. They can easily manipulate the amount they give you for the trade-in to make a profitable deal for them. Those who pay too high a price for the vehicle may end up getting a no money down financing at the dealership they are dealing with.

Regardless of your credit score, you are required to produce the standard auto loan paperwork to get the no money down auto loan. You will have to show the total amount that you have earned for the year. If you are self employed, you will have to produce the tax returns for the past two to three years. You will also need important information about the vehicle in question. You will have to mention the VIN, the purchase price on the dealer’s sheet, the year, make, model and the mileage. The car title and proof of insurance are crucial requirements when seeking a no money down auto loan.

Those with bad credit will have a tough time getting such a loan. They will end up paying a higher rate of interest than if they were making a down payment. They may be required to have a co-signer on a loan. Such borrowers should steer clear of lenders with “buy here, pay here” policies.  These lenders usually charge exorbitant interest rates. They also have very aggressive repossession policies and little leniency in late payments. It’s essential to check these things out before striking a deal with a lender. Be sure you clearly understand the terms of the agreement before you sign.  Make sure you understand the terms, the payments, the duration of the loan, the late penalties and other details.

Secured Auto Loan - Cheap Auto Loan

Looking for the right financing option while buying a new or used car can be a daunting process, especially with dealerships doing all that’s in their might to make their financing programs sound highly attractive. However, if you are looking for a cheap auto loan, it is highly advisable to get started at your local credit union, where there are high chances of getting the best auto loan rates. The Greater Central Texas Federal Credit Union serves multiple locations across Central Texas, and can help you to get the lowest used car loan, as well as attractive rates on new cars. We have been serving Central Texas since our establishment in 1957, and ensure that we provide the best deals to our customers.

Below is a list of the top reasons to get a car loan from a credit union:

• Credit unions are more likely than a commercial bank to consider personal financial issues such as a mediocre credit or previous credit issues. Even though credit unions essentially follow the same process for a loan application and approval, they offer a greater degree of flexibility, making them more customer-friendly.
• The interest rates at a credit union are typically much lower than those at other financial institutions, which equates to substantial long-term savings for the borrower.
• Being non-profit organizations, credit unions are member-oriented, which is why they offer a high degree of personalized attention, providing members with the best possible customer service. Since a group of volunteer board members is responsible for making all operation decisions, the members of the credit union have a greater say in how the credit union works.
• Credit unions provide their members with useful educational resources that can help them to make the right financial decisions when assessing the value of their car purchase. Credit unions help you to look beyond the dealership value of the car, into a clear assessment of the car’s real value.
• Credit unions follow a non-sales approach, contrary to commercial banks which grant bonuses and compensations to employees for loans that get approved. On the other hand, all the proceedings gained from credit unions are returned to the members in the form of lower rates and flexible loan options.
