In-House Financing: The Buy Here Pay Here Advantage
For some customers, the most effective solution is our in-house financing program, often known as Buy Here Pay Here (BHPH). What does this mean for you? It means we are the lender.

We look at your current income and stability rather than focusing solely on a credit score. This allows us to provide no credit check car loans in many cases.

This streamlined approach eliminates the middleman and gives us the flexibility to create customized payment schedules, such as weekly or bi-weekly payments, that align with your paydays.

Frequently Asked Questions About Used Car Financing
Can I get a car loan in Mount Pleasant, SC with bad credit?
Absolutely. We specialize in helping customers with less than perfect credit. Our finance team works with a variety of situations, including past bankruptcies, repossessions, and low credit scores. We focus on your current ability to pay, not just your credit history, and offer solutions like second chance auto loans to help you get approved.
What documents do I need to apply for financing?
To expedite the process, it is helpful to bring a valid driver's license, proof of income (like recent pay stubs), proof of residence (such as a utility bill), and your trade-in title if applicable. For a more detailed list, please visit our page explaining what to bring to the dealership.
How much of a down payment do I need for a used car?
The required down payment can vary based on the vehicle you choose and your individual credit situation. While a larger down payment can lower your monthly payments, we also offer flexible options, including low down payment used cars. We work with you to find a down payment amount that is comfortable for your budget.
What is the difference between your financing and a traditional bank loan?
As a dealership with in-house financing, we are the direct lender. This gives us more flexibility in approvals, especially for those with credit challenges. A bank loan involves a third party, which often has stricter credit score requirements. Our Buy Here Pay Here options provide a streamlined process where you can shop, finance, and make payments all in one place.
Can getting an auto loan with you help rebuild my credit?
Yes, it can be a great tool for credit improvement. We report your consistent, on-time payments to the major credit bureaus. Over time, this positive payment history can help increase your credit score, opening up more financial opportunities for you in the future. We are proud to offer rebuild credit auto loans for this very purpose.
