Even if you have bad credit, there are still ways that you can lower your current car payment by refinancing an auto loan so that you can free up additional cash to help you with other bills. It's called a bad credit refinance auto loan and it's possible to do if you're at least halfway through your original loan. Here's how it works: By taking your current auto loan that's at least halfway through the loan term and refinancing the balance for another three to five years, you can lower your current payment and relieve some of the pressure from your monthly budget. As with any auto loan, there are certain preparations you must make for a bad credit refinance auto loan. The first step is to know your credit history as well as your FICO score. Not only will this determine if you qualify for a loan, it will also five you an idea of what kind of interest rate you may receive on the new loan. If your credit score has improved substantially since taking out your original loan, you could very well see a lowering of your interest rate on the new loan. If your credit score is significantly worse, it could also indicate a higher interest rate on the new loan. Secondly, a review of your current credit file will enable you to make any corrections to it before you apply for a bad credit refinance auto loan. Any corrections that result in a better credit profile will better your chances of qualifying for the loan. One more thing you need to know: you won't be able to apply for this type of loan through a car dealer. You will need to go to a bank or credit union or other finance source - either in person or online - and apply for the new loan directly with them.
