Preparation
To make sure you hit the ground running with our Finance Department, there are some materials you’ll need to gather ahead of time . To start, you’ll need to bring your driver’s license so we can verify if you’re able to operate a vehicle on your trips to Mayors Park. We’ll also require proof of insurance to ensure you’re covered from the moment you leave our dealership. Next, it’s important for our team to know whether or not you can afford your potential model. That’s precisely why we ask our customers to provide us with a few pay stubs, or you can show us your income digitally through your banking app. To verify your financial standing, you’ll also need to contact your credit union for an accurate score. Or, we can complete that task at our location for you! Lastly, you’ll need a down payment in the form of a check, cash, money order, or online transfer.
Budgeting
Unfortunately, it’s common for many drivers to purchase a vehicle that doesn’t correlate with their financial restrictions. To avoid signing up for a contract that consumes your savings account, it’s important to set firm budgetary limitations ahead of time. To accomplish this, you’ll want to total up your average monthly expenses. For most people, this includes their mortgage, car insurance, and typical bills you may incur on a regular basis. To make sure you avoid razor-thin margins, we suggest adding some extra wiggle room into your calculations to prevent falling behind on installments. The leftover amount is what you can use for your used model at our location. Don’t forget, the highery your initial down payment, the lower your monthly installments and interest rates will be depending on your term length.

When you’re ready to begin the purchasing experience, you’ll be able to use our online Payment Calculator to view your buying power. This tool also allows you to plug in your trade-in value, which you will also be able to view with our dedicated online resource. Once you’re comfortable with the figures, you’ll be able to come to our location to test drive your top contender on Route 9. If you wish to proceed, our team will meet with you to discuss your loan options. If you’re comfortable with the package you’re approved for, you can proceed by enrolling with our team.
