1. Be Careful Of Online Statements Like “Guaranteed Approval”
Marketing companies and online agencies make money on the data you provide and not on the actual sale of a car or the financing of a vehicle, so the headlines and sometimes the content can be misleading, as all they want is your information. Agencies collect names and emails, and phone numbers and then, turn around and sell your data to numerous dealerships in the hopes of selling you one of their cars.
Every dealership that has an agreement with these online agencies and marketing companies for the right to use your data, pulls your credit bureau data which drives your quality score down, which in turn hurts and even limits your opportunity for approval at a decent rate. Insta Auto recommends that you find a dealership that you like and feel you can trust and let them take over and go through the process of acquiring you financing services.
