How To Minimize Your Monthly Payment If You Are Taking On A Bad Credit Car Loan?

Don't feel like you are pushed against the wall if you have less than perfect credit. You will be surprised how many Canadians today fall into that category. A car loan's approval and ARP or interest rate is based on your credit history, generally speaking the better the credit bureau the lower the interest rate. I mean after all it makes sense if the person you are lending money to have a good chance of returning it, wouldn't you be more comfortable taking less interest in return just to keep him happy? And in the other extreme if you feel like your principle is at risk, you should minimize the risk by taking on a big return, otherwise it's not worth your time right? Every time you are trying to take on a car loan, try to think about it from the lender's perspective. That will often give you valuable insights into the world of banking and lending practices.

All of us want a lower monthly payment, and we all want to pay as little as possible and drive as nice of a car as possible. That is just human nature! So to get a lower monthly payment you simply buy a cheaper car with less capital cost and that is the first way to reduce your monthly payment. But if you have bad credit on top of that, interest rate will be your enemy so having a lower monthly payment is almost impossible. But in relative terms, you can still lower your payment in a few different ways. One of them is try to take on another loan at a lower APR rate, so for example if you're current bad credit loan is at 21% interest rate, and you still owe $10000 on that loan. By you applying for another loan from a different lender may result in you been approved for another $10000 loan at 17% interest rate. That 4% difference can save you 30-40 dollars per month, so it will only make sense if you can get the lower rate.


The second tip is to re-apply financing after one year of repayment. The bad credit car loan system works kind like our jail, when you are on good behavior and after a while they may give you an early release, or set paroled due to that reason. It is very much the same in the car loan repayment and credit rebuilding process.
