Current Auto Loan Rates: the Facts as They are

I have written before that the most important thing to consider when applying for an auto loan is the current auto loan rates. These loan rates are responsible for determining how much you are going to end up paying for the car. So the most important thing you have to me in the look-out for is low car loan rates. In this article I’m going to talk to you about the current auto loan rates and give you some extra tips on the best places to look for low loan rates.

First off, you should know that there a 4 primary different kinds of auto loan rates:

• 36 month car loan
• 48 month car loan
• 60 month car loan
• 72 month car loan

Each of them have different loan rates that fluctuate between 6.5% and 14%, sometimes climbing up to the 15% or 16%. The actual rate depends on you location and if you want a new auto loan or an used car loan, but the general rule of thumb is the lower number of months for the auto loan, the lower the car loan rate. Of course if you want an used car loan you should expect slightly higher loan rates than for new cars.

I’ve learned that depending on where you apply for your auto loan, you can anticipate to find lower or higher rates. I win’t talk about it in-depth but you can anticipate lower auto loan rates from credit unions and higher – but safer – rates from the auto dealers.

Auto Loan Rates Different Locations

If you are part of a credit union, you’ll be capable to opt for larger auto loans with lower auto loan rates. You should follow your union and analogize the auto rates with your local bank to glimpse which one is better. The other place, auto dealers, can accost you auto loans with a somewhat higher loan rate but are much safer. When I state safer I’m stating that the total loan process faster and approval rates are much higher.

But don’t worry if you’re not a member of a credit union or only find high auto loan rates with your auto dealers. There is another kind of auto loan you can apply for called a home equity auto loan. By placing your house as a collateral, you’ll be securing your auto loan no matter what. Always remember to research for the current auto loan rates until you have nowhere else to look for

I have a Fico score of 568 and rising. What are the chances of getting an auto loan with a low down payment?

JJ asked:


Right now my Fico score is at 568. On my credit report the reasons stated for my low score is because of a severely late payment 8 months ago from a student loan. The reason for this is that for some reason the lender didn’t update my account as being deferred and when I found out about it, I paid it up to current and have made all other payments on time (before and after this with them). I tried contacting them about this but they are not willing to help with the late payment reporting. I also have a large amount of inquires because I’ve been applied for loans with the “bad credit” dealerships only to be told I can get a used $10000 car for like $500 a month payments (not a very good deal in my eyes because most of the vehicles have 100k miles). Now with what fico has released as the scoring for late payments my interpretation of that would be that my score would be in the 650′s if my student loan had reported correctly. If I were to go to a bank or credit union and explained my situation with that would it help me get into a vehicle or just hurt me with another inquiry? I do have some old collections from a divorce that I have been paying off and having them removed that were from about 4-5 years ago, but now I need a new vehicle and all my excess cash went to old bills so I am limited on a down payment. Currently I have 2 credit cards with a total of $500, 20% utilized just to keep a good reporting. I have been at my employer and address for 18 months and my AGI approx 40k.

I am hoping to get some professional opinions whether it would be possible to get an auto loan through a CU or Bank. Would going to a large dealership be the best bet? Any guess on the probability to get a loan would be great.
I understand I would have a higher interest rate but I am willing to accept that. I am just trying to get into a new or slightly used vehicle and bring my score up by April 2010 to purchase a home.
People come on here for answers, not snide comments. Also, I’m asking for professional experience or people who have been able to do so in similar situations. Please, if you do not know then don’t post just to get a point.

I want my auto loan company to pay off my car, let me keep it and give me a new one?

taalsi asked:


My auto finance company contacted me and told that since I owe less than $2,000 left, they would pay off my current auto loan and give me a new car in exchange for my old one. They also guaranteed a lower finance rate and lower payments. I originally told them no because I’m looking forward to not having anymore payments.

However, I have a 16 year and realize the benefits of having 2 cars. So, I want to keep my current car and get a new one but I’m wondering if I can still get them to pay off my current car even though I want to keep it. I also don’t want to pay a down payment for the new one. This may seem greedy but I figured it doesn’t hurt to ask and with so many people not being able to pay for their cars, the company may be willing to work with their good customers.

Has asked about this kind of thing and how’d it turn out for you?
TIA

Can I get a used auto loan in this credit crunch, and how much interest should I expect with bad credit?

J asked:


I have been watching a lot of CNBC and you see all over the news about the current economic crisis. It looks like we are in a credit crunch, and I have heard its affecting getting any kind of credit.

I want to purchase a used car. My credit score is far from great! It is right around 590. I was prepared to pay a high interest rate prior to the economic crisis, but now I am concerned I wont even be able to get a car.

I was looking at purchasing something for around 12-15k and putting 10-20% down. What are my options? What can I expect? Any links the news articles or real world examples appreciated, and any relevant references or resources in concern to CURRENT loan practices.

I knew what to expect two months ago, but I want to know what to expect TODAY! And references or real world experience backing up your statements.

Keep the smart ass comments to yourselves! Thanks! =)

How do you set up the inequalities etc for this problem?

ccc asked:


A bank is attempting to determine where its assets should be invested during the current year. At present, $500,000 is available for investment in bonds, home loans, auto loans, and personal loans. The annual rates of return are:

Bonds=10%, Home Loans 16%
Auto Loans 13%, Personal Loans 20%.

Restrictions:
The amount invested in personal loans cannot exceed the amount invested in bonds.
The amount invested in home loans cannot exceed the amount invested in auto loans.
No more than 25% of the total amount invested in auto loans may be invested in personal loans.

Help the bank maximize the annual return on its investment portfolio by formulating the linear program.

Please use w,x,y,z for variables so I can follow along… Thank you for helping out.

If i don’t provide proof of income will they cancel my auto loan?

coco sweets asked:


I got financed through a dealer and I believe they scammed me and added on all kinds of crazy charges. They also lied to me about my credit and other lending competitors so that they could get me to agree to a high rate. They saw this idiot coming. I want out of the whole thing but when you drive off the lot with the car it is yours. Now they are saying that they want my pay stub to give the bank as proof of income. What happens if I don’t give it? DO they cancel the loan?

Serious answers please. I need serious advice

Thanks
For those who keep recommending auto loans, thanks but I have an auto loan. I financed though the dealer.
I want to know if they will cancel my current scam of a loan if I don’t provide proof of my income
