There are some aspects to consider, yet ultimately the answer is that there is no better option between deciding to finance through a bank or dealership. Why? Because financing with a dealership is financing with a bank. All car dealerships that offer financing payment options have banks signed as credit providers for their customers. The array of available banks for auto loans will be different at each dealership you visit. Banks are very selective with who they choose to work with. Thankfully, at Autoplex Alberta choosing the bank to finance you for your purchase is simple as we work with all Major Canadian banks. If you would like to Finance a Vehicle with your own specific bank, Autoplex Alberta will be happy to assist you with your application and documentation for approval. However, depending on your credit and financial situation (bad or no credit), alternative lenders may actually be a better option for you. It is important to speak with your finance representative regarding the best option for you because your own bank may not always be the best option.
Some dealerships offer in-house financing. In such cases the dealership is not utilizing a bank as a credit provider, but instead, the dealership is the sole provider of credit for the auto loan. Only certain institutions are allowed to provide such payment options, however, it can be beneficial to car buyers who have previously struggled to get approved. While most banks have strict approval requirements, in-house financing can be much more lenient for you. However, in most cases an in-house finance will carry larger interest. Therefore, financing with a bank is a better financial alternative.
