What to look for when taking a loan.
You should get focused on the APR, or annual percentage rate. Every lender has its own APR. The APR is the annual cost of the loan, or interest rate. When you get this number, it is easy to compare the loans between different deals, as long as the duration of the loan is the same for each deal. Think about the size of your loan. How much can you afford? You should calculate the amount you can afford to pay each month, before you go for a car shopping. You should make a decision about the cost of your car, and not the dealer. Smart idea is to calculate 20% of your monthly disposable income. Your income, minus payments of all living expenses and debts, of that sum you take on-fifth what’s left. This is your maximum monthly auto loan charge. Do not to forget to include the charges of gas and insurance, the best would be if all of it can be in that one-fifth of your income.
Decide for how long you will be paying for the car, the duration of your loan? Your monthly payment is basically your loan plus interest, divided over the number of months of loan payments. If you choose the longer payment, be aware that you’ll in the long run end up paying much more, although your monthly fee will be lower. Why is that? Because, you will pay much more interest in your loan, and in the end you will pay a larger amount than you’ll pay if you choose a shorter loan duration.
The best strategy is to get a loan between 3 to maximum 5 years. So, you have decided to get a loan, decided what is your maximum of monthly payment and for how long you are going to pay off your loan. The next step is choosing the car. Not a simple thing, but we will discuss it too.
