Review Your Credit Report Early

It’s no secret that your credit score will influence your ability to qualify for Mazda financing along with the terms that are included in your loan contract or lease agreement. With that in mind, it’s wise to review your credit report before you start shopping for a vehicle. 

If you notice any errors, take immediate steps to correct them. It can take several weeks for corrections to appear in your credit report and drive up your credit score, so don’t wait until the last minute to take corrective action.

Save a Down Payment

Whether you want one of our new Mazda vehicles or a quality pre-owned car, it’s advisable to save money to put down when you complete your upcoming transaction. The bigger the payment you put down, the lower your monthly payments will be.

To see how the size of your down payment will impact your monthly payments, you can use our online auto payment calculator. As you’ll see, you can change the interest rate just like you can adjust your down payment when you use that handy tool. You may qualify for a more favorable interest rate if you put more money down upfront.

Get Pre-Qualified

Making a car-buying budget — and sticking to it — is a smart idea so you don’t buy an automobile that’s too expensive or settle for a lesser model than you can comfortably afford. Creating a budget is much easier if you get pre-qualified for an auto loan because you’ll know the total amount you can spend on your next vehicle. 

Recruit a Cosigner

First-time car buyers and drivers with poor or no credit can increase the odds that they’ll be approved for a car loan by recruiting someone with better credit to cosign their contract. If you’re going to recruit a cosigner, make sure you can fulfill your contractual obligations, or you’ll put your buddy’s credit score at risk.
