Step 1: Get Pre-Approved!*
Before you start looking for a vehicle, you should talk to a loan officer and get a pre-approval for how you much you qualify for. Taking this step before choosing a vehicle helps in two major ways:
1. It protects your credit from being pulled multiple times at the dealership.
2. It keeps you from falling in love with vehicle that your budget cannot support.
When you know what you qualify for, you have to make the decision if you want a new vehicle or if a used vehicle is better for you. The biggest deciding factor is what works best for your budget.
Step 2: Start Shopping!
After you get your pre-approval, Centric can help you find the perfect vehicle for you.
