What do lenders look for when giving out car loans?
I want to buy a car, and am considering applying for a car loan.
What do lenders look for as a bare minimum to get a loan?
I have no possibilities for a co-signer, I have been in the same job for 3 years, so I have steady income, and I live at home so I don’t pay rent/mortgage.
Also, what lenders are usually more willing to give loans? Banks, credit unions, etc..?
Thanks!
Here are some factors that lenders consider: credit score, employment and proof of income, residential address, value of car to finance, length of terms, downpayment, current loan standings or recent credit records.
Since you have a steady job, a stable income and a house you fully owned, you can easily get a car loan. However, the amount they will lend to you and the annual percentage rate of interest they will impose will be affected by the factors i mentioned above.
Banks offer better interest rates and are more quick in their approval and release of loan amount. So, I would say, you check the banks first.
