Repo Car Loan Can Put You Back On The Road
Preventing a repo is the best way to manage your personal finances particularly because a repo is going to stay put on your credit records for as long as 10 years. But, if despite all your efforts, when the inevitable happens, you must find a way to keep yourself mobile. A repo car loan is the best way to put you back on the road.
Before you set out shopping for a repo car loan, it is essential to understand the impact of a repo. The lender who repossesses the car will put up the car for auction and the sale proceeds are more likely to be well below the fair market value of your car. The realization from the auction will be adjusted against what you owe the lender and you would still be responsible for the remainder. In addition to this, you would also be required to cough up additional money towards repo fees, legal charges, towing charges and so on.
Instead of allowing repossession, you can sell the car before the situation goes really out of control and use the proceeds to close the loan. It is likely that you fall short of the required amount to close the loan, but the lender would be more than willing to accommodate you by granting additional time to pay up the remainder.
The best way to get a repo car loan is to allow a cooling period after the repo has happened. This can be anywhere between 6 months to one year. During this period, try as much as you can to clear up your debt and improve your credit score. Some lenders may be willing to provide you a repo car loan even before the credit scores can improve, but the finance costs and interest are bound to be much higher. A significant portion of your monthly payments will go towards these charges and correspondingly the loan will run over several months.
When you are ready to consider a repo car loan, do an extensive research on the internet to find a lender that you can comfortably work with. Understand that the big brothers in the lending business are unlikely to be helpful to you. Identify the smaller and newer entrants into the business and it is more likely that they offer you best terms on your repo car loan.
When none of these measures work for you and you need the car the very next day after repo, the best measure is to look for the same-day car loan. With this type of lender, your credit score is not important but your income and the ability to meet the monthly payments will impact the repo car loan. It is important that you be in a position to provide proof of your income and proof of a checking/savings account. In most cases, you will get approved for the repo car loan on the same day that you make an application. Undoubtedly this is a pricey option but the advantage is that you will start repairing your credit through unfailing monthly payments. At the end of six months or one year after the loan, you can also consider refinancing your loan through another lender.

I had a repo in 2004. Can I get a loan for a used car with a substantial amount down?
I would like to get a used car in the 5-6k range with about $2500 down. Does anyone know how badly I would get penalized? Is it even worth it? My score has gone down in the past few months; maybe a 500 now ( i know~~HORRIBLE) If anyone's had some experience with this let me know! Thanks people
There are lenders out there that will finance bad credit auto loans. The large down payment will help, but your income and debt to income ratio will mean a lot. And yes you will get penalized in the sense that if you get approved you will have to pay a high interest rate; because of the repo you are considered high risk.
