Getting Indivual Car Loans After Bankruptcy

When you’re ready to buy a new car, here are a few strategies
you can use to buy your car without credit — plus a few
strategies that will help you get a car loan. Once again, I know
these techniques work because I’ve used them myself or have
seen others use them successfully.
When I declared bankruptcy, my car had been sold at auction
after being impounded for unpaid parking tickets. My car loan
was listed on my bankruptcy, which made it virtually impossible
for me to get a car loan right after my bankruptcy.
Instead, I bought a 1982 Honda Civic hatchback. This car had
been in two fender benders, was rusty but reliable, and cost me
$200. The owner was selling it because she lived in the city,
had just bought a new BMW and didn’t have room to park
two cars.
I drove that Civic for five years and put a total of $1,000 into
it for a new clutch, muffler and brakes. I never had a car
payment though — and I used that extra money to pay off
debts that weren’t included in my bankruptcy.
Grand total, I spent $1,200 on my car over five years. I then
sold the car in 1991 to a college student for $500 (150% more
than what I paid for the car). My total cost came to $700 —
or $140 a year.
If you need a car before your credit report is completely
cleaned up (See Chapter 1), or if you’re still making payments
on your Chapter 13 bankruptcy you’ll probably have to pay
cash for your new car. I’m not talking about doling out tens
of thousands of dollars. I’m talking about shopping around
for a reasonably-priced, reliable car. Shop the classifieds,
college billboards, places like that. Pay particular attention to
ads that say “ugly but reliable.”
If you’re still making payments under your Chapter 13
bankruptcy, you will need to get the trustee’s permission
before you buy a car. Chances are good, however, that the
trustee will work with you to fit the car into your budget.
The Best Way to Get a Car Loan After Bankruptcy,
From NY to WA
If you do buy your car from a dealer, keep the focus on how
much you want to pay for the car, not on how much you can
afford to pay each month. For example, tell a dealer that you’re
looking to buy a car that’s two to three years old and that you
want to spend no more than $7,000 on the car. The dealer
wants you to commit to as large a monthly payment as you
can afford, in order to get the most interest out of you they can.
Instead of putting the dealer in charge of your finances, put
yourself in charge. Start by calculating how much car you can
afford to pay off in two years. If you can afford to spend $250
a month on a car payment, then you can afford to finance
$6,000 over two years. You don’t want to tell the dealer you
can spend $250 a month because the dealer will want to hook
you up with a $250 payment for 48 months, financing
$12,000 instead of $6,000.
A good dealer will work with you to buy the amount of car
you want to buy. A good dealer will stop trying to sell you on
the “low monthly payment” as soon as they see that you are
serious about wanting to spend no more than the price you’ve
determined.
Put down as much as you can afford to put down toward the
total price of the car. This will help you get a better...
