  • Can a BHPH loan help improve my credit score?

  • What kind of down payment do I need?
    Each dealership sets their own down payment requirements. Many work with as little as $500 or $1000 down, depending on your income and the car you choose.
  • How does financing work at a BHPH dealership?
    Financing at a BHPH dealership involves selecting a car, providing a down payment, and agreeing to a payment plan directly with the dealer. Payments are usually made weekly or bi-weekly. The process also includes a credit check and a customer interview to assess your financial situation.
  • Is Buy Here Pay Here the right choice for me?
    BHPH can be a good option if you have bad credit and need a vehicle quickly. However, it’s important to compare it with traditional financing options. Our 60-second approval quiz can help you determine the best choice for your situation.

  • What does “Buy Here Pay Here” mean?
    Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) dealerships offer in-house financing — they approve and finance the car directly, without going through a bank. That’s why credit history doesn’t matter as much.
  • Will a BHPH dealership check my credit?
    Yes, BHPH dealerships do perform credit checks, but the main purpose is not to evaluate your credit score. Instead, they want to ensure you don’t have an existing car loan or aren’t currently in open bankruptcy. This helps them manage their risks and follow their underwriting guidelines.
  • How fast will the dealer contact me?
    Typically within minutes. Once you click “Request Info,” the dealership receives an instant notification and will reach out by phone or text using the number you provided.
  • Can I browse without applying or submitting my credit info?
    Yes. You can browse all cars freely. You only submit your name and phone number when you see a vehicle you’re interested in — and that goes straight to the dealer.

  • Do these dealerships run a credit check?
    Many Buy Here Pay Here dealers listed here do not run a credit check at all. If they do, it's usually just to verify your identity — not to determine approval.
  • What documents do I need to bring to get approved?

    Absolutely. All the cars listed on this site come from Buy Here Pay Here dealerships that specialize in helping people with poor credit, no credit, bankruptcies, or previous repossessions. Approval is based on your income, not your credit score.
  • How quickly can I get approved and drive away?
