Financing Options for Diverse Credit Histories
We firmly believe that your credit history should not be a roadblock to owning a reliable vehicle. Life happens, and financial challenges like divorce, bankruptcy, or repossession can impact anyone's credit score. Our finance department has extensive experience working with customers from all walks of life and with varying credit situations. We welcome applications from individuals who have:
- Bad Credit: Do not let a low score discourage you. We partner with lenders who specialize in bad credit car loans and can often find flexible financing options.
- No Credit: If you are a first-time car buyer or new to building credit, we can help. We have programs designed to help you establish your credit history while getting the vehicle you need.
- Past Bankruptcy: A past bankruptcy does not automatically disqualify you. We work with individuals who are rebuilding their finances and can help navigate the process of securing auto financing after bankruptcy.
- Unique Income Sources: We understand that not everyone has a traditional 9-to-5 job. We are experienced in working with various income types, including those from self-employment, gig work like Uber, or fixed incomes such as SSI.
Our team is dedicated to treating every customer with respect and finding a path forward. We encourage you to learn more about our affordable and accessible financing options and see how we can assist you.
What You Will Need to Apply
To make the process as fast and smooth as possible, it helps to have a few key documents ready. While our online application is the first step, our finance team or lending partners may request the following to finalize your loan:
- A valid driver's license or other government-issued photo ID.
- Proof of income, such as recent pay stubs or bank statements.
- Proof of residence, like a recent utility bill or bank statement with your current address.
- If you are trading in a vehicle, the title and registration for that car. You can get an estimate of your trade-in's worth with our Value My Trade tool.

Is a 24-hour car loan approval possible for every applicant?
While our team works diligently to provide a decision within 24 business hours for most applicants, the timeline can sometimes vary. Factors such as the complexity of an application, the need for additional documentation, or the response time from specific lending partners can occasionally extend the process. Our commitment is to work as quickly as possible and keep you informed every step of the way.
Can I still apply for a car loan if I have bad credit?
Yes, absolutely. We encourage individuals with all types of credit histories, including those with past challenges, to apply. Our finance department specializes in working with diverse financial situations and has access to lenders who offer programs for customers with less-than-perfect credit. You can learn more on our page about bad credit car loans.
Does applying for a car loan online hurt my credit score?
When you submit a full credit application for a loan, lenders will perform a hard inquiry on your credit report to make their decision. A hard inquiry can have a small, temporary impact on your credit score. However, shopping for a car loan within a short period typically results in multiple inquiries being treated as a single event by credit scoring models, minimizing the impact.
What is the difference between your financing and Buy Here Pay Here?
As a dealership, we work with a network of external banks and lending institutions to find a loan for you. This is different from a Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) model, where the dealership itself acts as the lender. By working with multiple lenders, we can help you explore a wider range of potential rates and terms. We invite you to read our comparison of Lease Here Pay Here vs. Buy Here Pay Here for more details.
Can I use my current vehicle as a trade-in for a down payment?
Yes, trading in your current vehicle is an excellent way to cover some or all of your down payment. The equity in your trade-in is applied directly to the purchase price of your next car, which reduces the total amount you need to finance. This can lead to a lower monthly payment. You can get a preliminary valuation online using our Instant Cash Offer tool.
