What IS an Auto Equity Loan?

An auto equity loan is a secured loan based on the value of the vehicle you own. You can determine how much equity you have by finding the difference between the vehicles value and the amount still owed on your auto loan. Did you make a down payment when you purchased your vehicle? Or maybe you’ve been paying extra each month to pay off the loan sooner? Chances are you have equity in your vehicle! 

By using your vehicle as collateral, you can borrow money at a much lower interest rate than a personal loan. Rates are determined on your credit score and the year/make/model of the vehicle. Whether your auto loan is here at Family First, or at another institution, you could be eligible for this product! 

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How much can I borrow with an auto equity loan?

A: 100% of the vehicles value.

Q: What can I use the funds for?

A: Anything! There are no restrictions on what you can do with the funds borrowed. 

Q: Am I eligible for an auto equity loan?

A: If you own your vehicle (meaning you purchased it and your name is on the title), you could be eligible for this product – even if you’re still paying it off! Qualifying vehicles must be 2011 or newer. 

Q: What if my auto loan is at another bank?

A: Easy! At the time of closing, we cut a check to the other financial institution for the final payoff amount. The excess funds are given straight to you at that time. We can even set you up with automatic payments so you don’t have to worry about missing your future payments.
