Determine Your Credit Score

The first step is figuring out what your credit score. We make this easy for you! Just fill out our simple pre-approval form and we'll show you your credit score with no cost or obligation!

Calculate Your Budget & Down Payment

Next up on the list is determining your monthly budget. This will allow you to break down all of your expenses and see how much wiggle room you have for vehicle payments. Make sure you list out all of your spending, including items for your vehicle such as maintenance and gas. Not only will writing down your expenses help you calculate your monthly budget for your vehicle, but it will also allow you to see any areas you might be able to cut back on spending.

The next step is to see how much you can spend on a down payment. The more you can pay upfront, the lower your monthly payments will be. A larger down payment can be extremely helpful in helping you secure financing with a low credit score.
