It is far more common to buy a used car through auto loans in Mountlake Terrace rather than simply writing a check or paying cash. While it’s a great idea to use some of your available funds to foot a substantial down payment, saving the remainder for unanticipated expenses is an excellent plan. Buying a pre-owned vehicle is a straightforward task if you complete a little research beforehand.
Securing financing depends tremendously on the status of your credit rating. Most dealerships, however, offer a variety of loan options for excellent credit, average credit, poor credit or no credit at all. Finding a dealer who is willing and able to work with you whatever your credit standing may be is important.
Family, friends and co-workers are valuable resources for locating reputable dealerships. Their experiences can lead you to or away from certain ones. Whether you are interested in Fords, Toyotas or pre-owned Mitsubishi cars for sale, consider these 3 tips for buying used:
- Obtain copies of your credit report and credit score before filling out an application for financing. You are entitled to 1 free credit report per year and the credit score is available for a minimal fee. You can use these documents as bargaining tools.
- Shop interest rates at local used car dealerships.
- You can usually trade in your current auto as a down payment or front at least 10%.

This was the best car purchasing experience I have ever had and I used to work in car dealerships! An amazing and super nice and helpful crew. I was the first sale for the new sales guy, today was his 1st or 2nd day at work and with his mentor it was fun! And the finance gentleman was so thoughtful and considerate. They really met my needs and I am very grateful. Highly recommend Carson Cars! Ty guys!!
