Tough economic times create stricter lending guidelines and Hawaii is no different. Most people don't set out with the intentions of not paying obligations and are aware that
bad credit scores hinder major purchases, like homes and cars. Ironically, when money is abundant it's fairly easy to finance a car, but the need is greatest when money becomes less available. Even
years of an excellent credit history of making payments on time can be wiped out in just a few months when unforeseen circumstances arise for the hardworking man and woman.
Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH) car lots not only help used car buyers obtain a car and third party financing, but offer a chance to rebuild credit because they report to credit agencies. This is one
benefit not received when buying a used car from someone privately. Other benefits include obtaining a quality vehicle without the worry of hidden expensive repairs.
BHPH car lots in Hawaii are located in most major cities and each has multiple BHPH car dealerships. Unlike other car lots, BHPH customers can obtain the facts and figures of financing first to see
what kind of car they can reasonably obtain. To get an idea of payment amounts, we have a loan calculator located in our navigation menu on the left.
