Yes, even with bad credit, you can still be approved for a car loan in Alberta. Go to a dealer or retailer for assistance. Some lenders will consider other variables other than your credit score, such as your income.
Bad credit loans are a temporary solution for your money troubles. These loans can buy you time until you get your finances in proper order.
Bad credit loans can fall anywhere between $500 to $50,000. But of course, the loan amount will fluctuate based on a variety of factors such age, financial standing, employment status, and more. However, regardless of the loan amount, it’s important to be responsible with your loan as interest rates do apply. So start with a smaller loan if possible, unless you’re certain you won’t default on the payments of a larger loan.
Failing to repay a bad credit loan can result in incurred fees and penalties. Moreover, you can expect a default to show on your credit report.
No. Certain bad credit loans permit a down-payment, but it’s usually not necessary. Normally, the lending agency will deposit your loan into your bank account. At that point, you’ll need to repay it in installments with interest over time. Something to remember: If you do use a down-payment for your bad credit loan, the odds of approval increase.
Car Title Loans
A car title loan is a loan type that uses a form of collateral as a guarantee. For example, you may use your vehicle (car, van, motorbike, etc). But the lender takes possession of your vehicle’s title for the loan period. However, you remain the registered owner, so your car remains in your possession.
It depends on a number of factors. Some of these variables include the following:
- The lender you’re applying to for the loan
- Your capacity to repay the loan
- The state and value of your car
It’s recommended you only borrow the minimum amount of money you require.
Simply fill out the online application to apply for a car title loan. The process is relatively straightforward:
- Fill out the application
- Receive a quote from one of our specialists
- Get approved
- Drive off with cash in hand
Numerous documents will be required. However, here are the standard details you must have from the onset of the approval process:
- Identification
- Vehicle pictures
- Car title
- Verification of your capacity to reimburse the loan
- References
- Email, address, employment details, etc
- Proof of residence
There are a few requirements. However, many of these can be used interchangeably. If you can’t provide one, you can most likely provide another for a car title loan. Some of these requirements include the following:
- Bank statements
- Disability payments
- Proof of income
- Social security payments
- Other benefits you are entitled to
If you can’t repay your car title loan, the lender will report the offence. If it’s a first-time missed payment, you may be granted a grace period; as long as you communicate with your lender. But if you miss enough payments, the agency can resort to lawful action and legally seize any assets you are entitled to.
A car title loan is not the only option for your financial troubles. Before choosing a title loan, you may want to consider some alternatives, such as:
- Ask friends and family
- Get a second job or side gig
- Work longer hours at your current job
