Vehicle financing
Another big purchase that you will make in your life is buying a vehicle. As most of our budgets are already stretched to its limits it is much more difficult to purchase a car for cash. These days more and more South African citizens are turning to vehicle loans to help them finance their vehicles.
Know your credit score
When purchasing a new home or getting finance on purchasing a new vehicle, it is very important that you know your credit score. This score will tell lenders if you are a high credit risk or a low credit risk and there is a summary of all your accounts and payment details listed. If you have a good credit score you will be able to get a bigger loan with better terms.
Know how much you can afford
It is important to know how much you can afford to spend when you are looking to purchase a vehicle. It is very advisable to have a deposit that you can put down. This will make your interest rate lower and will also lower your monthly payments.
By knowing your budget and only looking for a vehicle in this range and not fall in love with a car that is outside of your price range. Stick to your budget and make sure that you will be able to afford payments even if something should go wrong.
Use insurance to save on your car loan
Most lenders in South African will reward you for having insurance on your vehicle, you will be rewarded for having life insurance and disability insurance as this lowers the risk that you pose to the lender. If you have sufficient coverage you could get a much better deal and a much lower interest rate.
Chose a flexible repayment structure
Make sure that you chose a flexible repayment structure that gives you the option to pay back your car or personal loan early should you have the opportunity to do so. Some lenders impose early repayment penalties so make sure you know exactly what you are agreeing to before you sign the contract.
