What Does Guaranteed Car Financing Mean?

car finance with mini car and coins


A low credit score doesn’t have to prevent you from getting approved for an auto loan. Rather than financing with a bank, you may be able to take out a guaranteed car finance loan directly through a dealership near you in St. Augustine. What’s the difference between financing with a bank vs. dealership? Your credit score is the number one factor for banks, but your dealership will consider other factors when they decide whether to offer you a loan. Explore your bad credit car finance and guaranteed car finance options in the guide below from the finance center at Hodges Mazda!

  • Proof of pre-tax monthly income of about $1,500 to $2,000
  • Proof of employment
  • A 10% down payment on the vehicle
  • A personal list of references
