Buying used cars near South Bend is a great way to save money. For one, a new vehicle’s value drops the second you take it off the car lot. In fact, a new vehicle’s value decreases by 20% to 30% in the first year alone! While a used car might need some maintenance, choosing a used vehicle saves you money on insurance, registration, and taxes. Below are some tips for buying used cars near South Bend, Indiana at R&B Car Company.
Set Your Budget
The first thing you need to do before searching for used cars near South Bend is to sit down and go over your budget. This includes how much you can pay for a monthly payment, car insurance, potential parking fees, maintenance costs, and how long you’re willing to pay off the interest. Personal finance experts recommend spending only 10% to 15% of your monthly income on transportation, including car payment, insurance, fuel, maintenance, and decorative accessories.
Get Pre-approved
Whether you’re looking for a used car, truck, or used SUVs near you, it’s important to seek pre-approval for a loan before visiting a car dealership. This shows the dealership of your choice that you’re serious about buying and gives you the advantages when it comes to financing and negotiating the price of your vehicle as you already have the information before you visit a used car dealer in South Bend Indiana.
Look At Your Options
Look online for used vehicles. If you’re looking specifically for used trucks for sale, our dealership website allows you to narrow your focus to only trucks. Our website will even show you the monthly payment for a vehicle after inputting information such as loan term, down payment, trade-in, and credit score. Having this information beforehand will help you immensely when you visit a used car dealer in South Bend Indiana.
Check Vehicle Information and History
Even if you find the vehicle you want, you have to do a few more things before visiting the used car lot near you. It’s important that you check a few things on the vehicle to ensure it’s the right car for you by using KBB, AutoTrader, Carvana, and others. The information to look for include:
Owner, maintenance, and accident history
Mileage – Don’t go over 200,000 miles
Year, make and model of vehicle – Cars.com allows you to learn more about specific cars, their pros and cons, consumer reviews, and features.
Condition of vehicle.
Contact Seller
Once you’ve settled on your choice of used cars for sale near South Bend that suits what you want and need, it’s time to contact the seller to arrange a test drive to see how the vehicle drives. A test drive is also a great time to have the vehicle inspected by someone you trust. If everything checks out during the inspection, it’s time to negotiate the deal and sign the paperwork using the information you gathered about the vehicle and your pre-approval process.
