Step 1: Researching Your Vehicle Options

Start your car-buying journey by doing thorough research. With so many options available, it’s essential to identify your preferences. Think about the following:

  • Vehicle Type: Consider whether you want a compact car, an SUV, or a spacious family vehicle.

Step 2: Financing Your Car Purchase

After picking the car you want, the next step is securing financing. Here’s what you should know:

  • Loan Options: Financing can be secured through your bank or dealership financing
  • Credit Score: Your credit score will play a role in determining your interest rate and loan terms
  • Down Payment: A larger down payment can help reduce monthly payments and make the loan more manageable

At Bill Walsh Streator's Finance Center, we are committed to helping you secure the best financing plan for your car purchase.

Step 3: Test Drive and Closing the Deal

After securing financing, it’s time for the fun part: the test drive This is your chance to test the vehicle and see if it suits your needs. Here’s what to expect:

  • Test Drive: During the test drive, focus on comfort, handling, and the vehicle’s features.
  • Negotiation: Once you’ve made your decision, negotiate the final price and complete all necessary paperwork.
