Everything You Need to Know About Trade-Ins

Most of our customers rely on us, the dealer, to secure the financing for their auto loan. We work in conjunction with over 40 different banks and credit unions to secure the best terms and rates available for our customers. However, the dealer does not determine your terms - only the lender can do that. They provide us with a number of different options so that you may choose what best fits your budget.
Trade-in value is based on factors like your vehicle's age, mileage, condition, make and model, market demand, and optional features. Dealerships often reference Kelley Blue Book or NADA Guides.
Equity is the difference between what your vehicle is currently worth, and the amount of money you still own on the loan. This can be positive or negative. For example, if you owe $12,000 and your vehicle is worth $10,000, then you have $2,000 in negative equity. On the other side, if you owe $10,000 and your vehicle is worth $12,000, then you have $2,000 in positive equity.
Positive equity in your trade can lower the amount of money that you finance, similar to a down payment. If you prefer, we can cut you a check back for the positive equity in your vehicle, but only after the original lender receives payment in full of the loan and the title is released to the dealership. This may take up to 6 weeks. Negative equity is rolled into the loan on your new vehicle and will increase the monthly payment unless offset by additional down payment.
