The percentage rates would be a big factor for me. This can depend on the dealership, whether large or small or a MOM & POP owned. Check the rates in your local banks as they will run a credit report and that score will determine the best rate you are qualified for. Whatever you do, do not get a repo of any kind on your record. Check percentage rate AND the amount of months you will be paying to determine just how much you will have in the vehicle when it is paid off.
you will always get a better interest rate financing elsewhere.
inhouse, dealer , buy & pay here finance are all essentially the same-you pay more for the convenience of them signing you up to their policies quickly, and with usually easier acceptance. There MAY be kickbacks involved too, these are usually illegal, but they happen. If you refuse their finance too soon, you may get a ‘worse’ deal. Arrange money, get deal, then tell them you how you’e going to pay.
In house financing and buy here,pay here are the same thing, it means the place you bought it does the financing, no bank involved….all done “in House”
Dealer financing means the dealer arranges financing, either through a corporate finance co (GMAC) or an outside bank… dealers normally have several banks, scattered around the country that they can get financing through….
Never do Buy here, pay here, the interest rates are always high, and the place may go belly up, and leave you hanging…
The best thing to do… is secure your own financing, before you go car shopping.. this makes you a cash buyer…
you can also use this to your advantage, by letting the dealer try to beat the deal you got at the credit union……
buy here pay here means they will finance anyone with a decent sized down payment.
In house financing can mean both…they will tote the note and they also have sub prime finance sources.
Dealer financing often means the dealer can arrange financing for qualified buyers but can mean the others also.
Bottom line is if the dealer is doing the financing, you are paying too much. Both in price and interest rate.
Why ? Because you likely are a poor credit risk and its the only way the business can be profitable.
