I have a good payment history on my car loan for 18 mos. I want to refi, but do not want to keep getting hits on my credit report while shopping.

Have you tried providing your own credit report? There's no adverse action from requesting your own credit file, and I've been told that as long as it's been w/in 30 days, then they have no right to refuse it, I mean, it's the same information, they get what information they need and you do too!

Good luck with the refi

If you pull a few credit reports on the same day for the same reason (shopping for a car loan), this will be viewed as 1 inquiry.

If you are eligible for Credit Union membership you will find excellent rates there.

It seems like people over analyze car loan rates, for example:

$20,000 loan for 5 years:
8% = 405.53/mo
7.75% =403.14/mo
7.50% = 400.76/mo

Real shopping should be saved for the BIG TICKET...a home.

the difficulty, as properly the 7 12 months "ding" on your credit. (And calling a repo a ding is like calling a bullet wound a minor abrasion) Your difficulty is they might sue you and in maximum states (Texas & South Carolina are 2 exceptions, i think of) while they win a judgment, it fairly is all yet assured, they might garnish your paycheck to the music of 25% PRETAX & PRE DEDUCTIONS. that's 25% of your GROSS pay off the best of each paycheck till all the deficiency plus repo & storage & sale expenses is paid off. So, in case you have a garnish-in a position activity, you ought to think of two times approximately it . $six hundred a month for a vehicle may be greater fee-effective than the alternative. $six hundred-one thousand+ consistent with month for no vehicle. (Assuming you earn $2400-4000 consistent with month) Now, some agencies might settle for money merely before suing you yet I cant see how they might settle for something decrease than $250-3 hundred and perchance not that. No hassle-free way out of a demanding concern.

Multiple credit inquiries on your account from lenders in a very short period of time (a week or so) do not overly impact your credit score in a negative fashion - they are essentially treated as just one overall inquiry by the score calculation.

Find out your credit score (FICO) and tell the lender what it is without revealing any more information.

Phrase it as a hypothetical question.

"What would my loan be if....?"

You should be able to get your credit score for free and it's ALWAYS a good idea to check up on it.

It's the FIRST thing any lender will look at.
