Helps With Budgeting

Getting preapproved for an auto loan helps you set a budget for your purchase since you know upfront how much you can borrow (or want to borrow) and the interest rate. Don’t forget that generally you will need to add on 10% to the price of the car for taxes and fees. Also, keep in mind other expenses such as gas and insurance.

There is no need to calculate in your head! You can utilize an online calculator, such as the one Nymeo provides.

Keep in mind that any loan approval is an up-to amount for what you can finance. The vehicle must meet the lender's requirements for age, mileage, and loan-to-value ratio.


Getting Pre-approved Serves as a Powerful Negotiation Tool

Setting up financing first shows the car salesperson that you’ve thought through the process. You’ll have more control to get the deal you deserve.
