Financing
Purchasing a three or five year old fleet / lease car is one of the best values in the marketplace. The savings can be as much as 50% below the manufacturer's original price! However, the purchase still has to be paid for, and most of us don't keep that kind of money in our personal checking account.
Fortunately most banks and credit unions give these cars the same preferential financing treatment as new cars. Interest rates are typically the lowest they offer, with financing up to 60 months. Below are links to some of the banks and credit unions who have financed cars for our customers. You're also welcome to use any bank you already do business with.
Importantly, we will be also be happy to hold the car for you that you wish to purchase while you're waiting for the financing paperwork to get processed. Give us a ring to ask for details on this.
