Auto loan have been designed for those people, desiring to purchase an automobile. When the person finally decides to avail auto loan basically three questions arises in his mind. These are:

*Whether to go for new automobile or used automobile

It is seen that the cost of new automobile is just, more or less double, the cost of used automobile. So this decision totally depends on the needs and budget of the person that is whether he can support the cost of new automobile or used automobile.

*Which model of automobile should be purchased

This decision relates as to which model of automobile the person wants to buy.

*And last but least, from where to get it finance

It is most crucial question which is to be answered as financing an automobile involves huge investments. Usually, the person gets confused while deciding whether the source of finance is reliable or not.

If we broadly classify the sources of finance, it can be categorised into three categories:

1.Physical market lenders

*Banks
*Financial institutions
*Building societies
*Credit unions etc.

2.Online lenders

3.Dealers

Physical market and online lenders are known as direct source of finance on the other hand dealers is the indirect source of finance. Dealers are just as an intermediary between the physical market lenders and the potential borrower. But the borrower is recommended to avoid dealing with intermediaries as it increases the subsequent cost of the auto loans.

If the person has bad credit and has fear of being denied in the market for the auto loan or thinking of paying high rate of interest, then there is no need to worry regarding his bad credit as he can avail competitive rate auto loan deal through co-signer. In this, the person with bad credit takes advantage of good credit of another person that is of co-signer. And through this he is able to avail the auto loan deal with competitive rates.

When an auto loan is repaid, technically its monthly instalment is known as equated monthly instalment. Basically, EMI constitute of two elements that is interest amount and the principal amount. And the amount of EMI totally depends on the repayment period been chosen. In other words, if the person chooses longer repayment period in such case his EMI will be smaller and vice versa. But, the person must always choose shorter repayment period.
