Meridian Bad Credit Loan Example

Joel is looking for a combination consolidation loan and a car loan. He is buying another car and he also has credit card debt that he would like to add to the loan.

He needs twenty five thousand for the car he wants to buy and another five thousand for the credit card debt that he would like to add to the loan.

The credit card debt is pretty straight forward. He spent some money on repairs for his existing car and also bought materials for his home.

He is doing some renovation work around the home and charged the materials and the car repairs to his credit card.

He could probably pay his credit card debt in a few months, however if he can avoid paying some of the interest on his credit card, he will save a few hundred dollars.

He and his wife feel they need a second car. He has a chance to purchase a used car from a buddy of his. It has been well taken care of and really is in like new condition.

His buddy has all of the maintenance paperwork for it and the car is still under warranty for another six months.

He can use the warranty to do any repairs that are needed, although at the moment there are no recalls on file and everything is up to date. He plans to use the car as security for the loan.

A $30000 loan with a five year term and 2.7% interest rate for Joel would cost him the following per month:

• Loan Amount (principal) = $30000
• Interest Rate = 2.7%
• Term Length = 5 year
• Monthly Payment = $535.07
• Total Paid Back = $32104.23
• Total Interest = $2104.23

Joel wants to use the car he is buying as security for the loan he has applied for. Unfortunately, the value of the car is less than the value of the loan he has applied for.

As a result, lenders would not agree to accept the car as security. Even though he is purchasing the car at below market value the number that is used for this purpose of loan approval is the lower of two numbers - market value or purchase price.

As a result, Joel has decided to use the equity in his home to cover the collateral he needs to support a low interest loan. Although approval of the loan will take longer this is probably the best approach if he wants a low interest loan.

He will need his home appraised and based on the appraised value, his loan will be added as a lien against his home. There will also be appraisal fees and processing fees which Joel might not have been aware of.

All of the other factors that are typically considered for a loan of this size have been considered. These include income, credit utilization, credit score, cash flow and equity value in his home were evaluated. Joel and his wife provided all of the information needed and his application is being considered.

If you're living in Meridian like Joel, and need a loan regardless of your credit rating, we may be able to help you find a willing lender.

Sincerely,

Chris Somerset
