Should you keep your car loan the way it is, or refinance your vehicle? There are several scenarios that make it worthwhile to consider refinancing a car loan. If you are wondering if or when you should refinance your auto loan, here are a few situations where it might be warranted.
Divorce. If you are divorcing and separating assets, you will want to make sure there is one name on your auto loan. That should be the name of the person who is in possession of the car. If your name is on as the co-owner of a vehicle you no longer have access to this is an issue. You are still liable for payments on that loan if the other person defaults. Also, should the car become damaged or even totaled in an accident, anyone whose name is still on the title is responsible to pay any deductibles that apply.
Change in financial situation.Did you recently experience a traumatic life event such as a job loss or unexpected medical expenses? You can significantly lower your monthly car loan payments by refinancing your auto loan. By extending the term of the loan, your monthly payments will be smaller and more affordable. You may also be able to secure a lower interest rate, thereby saving even more every month. If your financial situation improves, you can always make more than the minimum monthly loan payment. This way you can pay the balance off sooner, saving even more interest.
Improvement in your credit score. Your credit score has a great deal to do with the interest rate you receive on your auto loan. If your credit score improves significantly it may be a good idea to look into refinancing. Receiving a new loan with an auto refinance will pay off the balance of your current auto loan. You will receive a new loan with lower interest rates and lower payments. Continuing to make the new, lower payments on time will only boost your credit score even more.
