A car loan is a sum of money that a customer loans to buy an automobile. It is also referred to as an automotive loan or auto loan. A loan is, in general, a sum of money given to a person, a company, or another organization. The person who makes the loan is referred to as the lender, and the person who takes it out is referred to as the borrower. When taking out a loan, the borrower commits to repaying the entire loan amount plus interest, which is often calculated as an annual percentage of the loan amount, by a specific date, usually through monthly payments.
Most guidelines and protocols pertaining to other types of loans are also applicable to auto loans. When buying a car, borrowers typically apply explicitly for a car loan; but, they can also utilize a personal loan—a loan that an individual obtains and uses as they see fit—for the same purpose. While certain auto loans may have longer terms, all auto loans have set durations, usually ranging from 24 to 60 months. Another name for this kind of debt is financing. Various fees and taxes are typically included in car loans and are added to the overall loan amount.
Many customers apply at their neighborhood bank for auto loans. Typically, a borrower will start the application process by stating how much they wish to borrow for a car loan. After that, the borrower will divulge details on their financial status, starting with their income (the amount of money they make from working). The majority of lenders will demand documentation of the borrower's employment, typically in the form of a copy of a tax return or a pay stub—the section of a paycheck that contains information about an employee's earnings and is kept for personal records by the employee. The borrower's credit report will also be examined by the lender.
A bank or other financial organization will frequently give certain consumers preapproval for auto loans. In these cases, the customer has a set amount of time (usually 30, sometimes 45) to determine whether to apply for full approval of a vehicle loan or not. A lender will typically provide a maximum amount that a borrower can borrow after their application for a vehicle loan is accepted because most consumers obtain a loan before really looking for a car. After that, the borrower is free to utilize this money to buy any car they like; they are not, however, obligated to spend the entire amount that the lender has offered.
