Mississauga car loan tips
You can’t shop for your new ride until you know your budget, so spend time negotiating the details of your car loan: what loan amount are you approved for, what interest rate can you get, and what are your payment options?
The price tag on the car is just one of the car ownership expenses you have to consider. There’s also insurance, repairs, maintenance, and fuel economy. Research the total costs of operating a vehicle before you buy.
Registered dealerships have to follow strict rules and regulations, so you’ll gain certain rights and protections if you buy from one of them instead of from a private seller.
If you can afford bigger monthly payments right away, opt for a shorter loan, like a 24 or 36-month loan. You’ll pay less interest and get rid of your loan in less time.
