I have 5-6 thousand in negative equity... I'm definitely going to try to make some extra payments and keep it until I'm not upside down. I just hate putting so much into a car that I don't plan on keeping. Thanks for the advice 😊

I’m about 4K upside down. I went to a dealership to look at a used GTI and the sales guy did everything humanly possible to try and get me to roll over that much money into a new loan. He tried to make it seem like such a great deal and that they were helping me out but I work at a dealership and I know how they move money around to make it seem like a “good deal”. On the bright side, I saw just how stupid it was to even try to look at new cars at this point and I decided to just keep driving my car. Best decision I’ve ever made.

Keep and drive it while making extra principal payments. If Ally won't allow principal only payment and refinancing it is out of the question then I would save up my extra money in a separate account until I had enough to pay it off and make one big payment! What ever you don't know go and get another car. Clean up this one first and use the knowledge you learned to guide you in future car purchases.

If you owe 8k and it is valued at $16k why not fix what you need to in order to sell it and use the different to buy something in cash. This way you would no longer have a car payment which makes repairs not hurt as much plus could start saving for your next car. Also if your jeep is giving you a headaches why buy another. You gave them a chance move on!

Suggestions? I have a 2018 Rav4 - owe 28k on it It's worth 14-17k Credit is 690-723 depending on credit company I am not working but want to maybe get a personal loan to cover the negative equity, trade the rav in for something worth maybe 15k. Pay that off, and possibly then sell the car privately to tackle the other loan
@DiamondEdwards
@DiamondEdwards 3 жыл бұрын
That's a lot of moment to end up paying 28k away. 15k (new car) +13k (negative equity) = 28k plus interest. I understand times are hard and you may be looking for a way to lower your monthly expense but you plan will cost more in the end. Interest rates are highly on personal loans and harder to be approved. I would look for ways increase income and reduce expense in other areas. Stop the bleeding! Use the principal payments to reduce your balance and once your loan balance to equal the value of the car either sell and buy a cheap car for cash or refinance your loan and get a lower interest rate and payment. Moving debt only makes you feel like you did something. You can get out of this but its not going to be as easy as it was to get into it.

Thanks. In addition to the personal loan just check out a PLOC (person line of credit). Your credit union is probably a better option than a bank. You have a solid plan and are track. The only thing I would change is spend around 5k instead of 15k. I would to get the person loan for the negative equity plus 5k so you can get something to get around town in. Indeed this will lower your overall debt load while increasing your cash flow. Come back and let the me know how it works out! You never know how many people your story can help out.

Tip 4: Buy less car. We often let our egos sell us more car than our incomes can handle, so we go for longer and longer loan terms to lower the payments, guaranteeing that we'll maximize the negative equity. Tip 5: Use the shortest possible term. Depreciation is a bear. Back when they first came out, I bought a Kia Optima as a daily commuter. MSRP was $18K. I paid $13K. Four years later, it was worth $2,400. That first generation of Kias was pretty terrible.

Tip 4: I love that one too! People don't seem to realize that car prices are inflating faster than our salaries however they sell more and more car each year. Why? Because we financial them and like you said for longer term. They don't need to pay people more as long as they pay them enough to make the payments. It's all connected people! Depreciation is the silent killer and about the only way you can lose money as fast is in the casino.

One thing I don't see people talking about right now is turning negative equity with a high interest rate into negative equity with a low interest rate. That is - if pre-covid you got a 6.5% rate and you have 3 - 6k negative equity. You could buy a new car, roll that into the loan, and get a 1.9 or 2.9% rate. You have to pay the loan no matter what, but now you're doing it at 1/3 or 1/2 the rate. Just be aware that you're paying that interest rate on 40 - 50k instead of 10k or whatever you still owe. The struggle for me is trying to sell a financed car for $9k when I owe 13k on it. I'd have to send the buyer's 9k in along with 4k to get the title and sign it over. Who wants to do that? Which basically means doing what you said - go to the dealer, get what you want for the trade-in and pay the old car off. It beats trying to pay $13k+ off in a lump or waiting over a year if you need a new vehicle.

The best thing anyone can do for themselves when they are in a situation as you described is STOP. Take a step back and look at there complete financial picture. Where do they want to be financial in 3 years, 5 years and 10 years and layout a detailed plan on how will get where they want to be financially. How does a car purchase fit within those goals? When it's framed this way they will make a much better decision. All of a sudden, solving a $6,000 problem with a $40-50,000 dollar solution stop making sense. Short term thinking always lead to long term problems. When I looking at the big picture, I got serious and became debt free in 3 years so that I could focus on building up my net worth and buying a car would stop being such of a big deal. My last car purchase was the last straw. In your case, the best option IMO is keep driving it until you pay down the loan or come up with the difference and sell it. The problem with negative equity is you can fold it, flip it, spin it and shine it but at the end of the day you will still PAY IT and if your not smart about it. Negative equity can GROW putting you deeper and deeper in the hole. That is why rolling negative equity is the worst possible option. Let to those people who are $10, $20 or even $30k upside down. Anyone who is going to finance a vehicle can protect themselves from negative equity by following the guidelines in this video--->kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYbSpYSKirpgmpo The protect occurs at the buy!

Watch this video on How to Trade in a Car that is not Paid Off | MONEY $AVING TIP$ kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z3ypeqhuncSFnqc How much is the car actually worth and what is the loan balance? The difference is what your in the hole. I understand you are ready to get into a different car but the tips in the video hold true either you pay the negative off when you trade it in, or keep driving it and making payments until you can break even or you do what most do and trade in now, rolling the negative amount into you new deal. This is a bad idea on so many levels because it puts you deeper in the hole. My suggestion is to drive it awhile and use your desire to get out of it as motivation to come up with some more money so that you can have a clean break. Don’t let today’s desires become tomorrow financial burden. Remember you always have option and are in control. Be smart, be wise and crush it. You will be in another car real soon.

I loved the video, it was very informative. I'm thinking about trading in my current vehicle. Currently I owe $23,764 on it. It's pretty much brand new. I looked up the trade in value on NADA and these were the values I was given. Rough Trade in: $21,800/ Average Trade in: $23,450/ Clean Trade in: $24,800/ Clean Retail: $27,475. So going off of these values that means I no longer have negative equity and its not a bad idea to trade in correct? Or would it be best to wait and pay off more of the loan first? I'm still kind of new to buying cars. Thanks in advance.

Why do you want to trade it? Looks like you can break even so trading it in will just be starting over on new loan. No negative equity to worry about. I was in a similar situation where I could have sold my truck to the dealer and almost broke even. I ended up keeping it paid it off early and started investing my old car payment and in two years that account is over 16k and going up. This is why I will never take out another auto loan. The cost is too high!

Question: is it better to put down a $5000 down payment or 0 down payment and put the $5000 towards a principal only payment, or are they the same?
@DiamondEdwards
@DiamondEdwards 3 жыл бұрын
They are not the same, $5000 down is the better option. It reduces the amount financed, lowers the monthly payment and the total cost of the loan. Use a loan calculator and run the numbers both ways and you will see the difference. Because of how interest in calculated, the only way they are the same is if you make the principal payment the same day as you finance the loan which is not always possible. Last thing depending on the cost of the car 5k down may be just enough to cover taxes, title, and tags meaning you didn't put much toward the car at all. Some people will tell you pay never extra on a car loan and just invest the difference. Rarely, is that person wealthy and never will a wealthy people say I finessed my auto loans and that is how I became wealthy💯

Since some banks will finance 120% of the purchase price a dealer may be able to make this work but the result is you end up deeper in the hole. My advice is to keep the car and get it paid off. I struggled to build my net worth when I was fighting debt. As soon as I become debt free my net worth started to take off. It's a questions of what's most important to you.

If the goal is to get the car paid off so you can free up your money to do other things, I would not trade in the car. Your negative equity will mostly like prevent you from refinancing the car (too much risk to the bank). I would pay the $4000 now as a principal payment and keep making extra principal payments until the balance is in line with what the car is worth. At that point I would refinance. With a 690 you won't get the best rate but I am sure you can beat 22% and a lower interest rate plus those principal payments will save you a ton!

Do your owe research and find out what your car is worth, subtract that from your balance and they is your negative/positive equity.

Diamond I'm in a quandary. I'm severely upside down on my car loan. Cars worth around 16,000, and I probably owe close to 30 k. The problem is that the car sustained front end damage because I let my son drive it. And the part needed to replace it is on backorder. I want to get rid of the car and get something that might be either four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive. When trading a car that is upside down, what's the lesser of two evils? Trading it in on a newer late model maybe even a certified pre-owned car, or a car that might be cheaper in price. That is around what the Kelley Blue book value is. Your feedback would be greatly appreciated.

The truck is amazing and I think we can enjoy it until we make more principal payments and reduce the amount we owe to the offer given (I know this can change but at least get close to it). That way we can improve our credit scores and maybe shop for a better deal within a year or two. Thank you for giving me a better perspective!

Thank you Vionette! That is a nice truck and I say keep it pay it off and drive it for years to come. Once it is paid off reallocation that payment to your future car purchase fund so the next one you can buy with no payments. One of the biggest mistakes people are making with car purchases is getting rid of them too fast. They have gotten so expensive and most don't have the income to support swapping cars every few years. The problem is the finance industry has made it so easy to switch cars but that leaves the consumer (you and me) holding the bag and paying the penalty.

You have options, you always have options. Here are 3 options that come to mind: 1) Pay it off. 2) Let it get repossessed and still pay it off. 3) File bankruptcy lose the car and deal with everything that with that. Then you have buy a car for cash. I do have a question; was this a company you owned that went under or were you working for a company who gave you a car allowance and they stopped paying? My advice is this going to be a expense life lesson. If it were me knowing what I know now after paying off over $100,000 in debt and living debt free for almost two years now here is what I would do. I would sit down add up all my debt and start working a plan to pay everything off like this kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5aQnGqVnNGbb8k and use one this methods to attack your debt kzbin.info/www/bejne/qnvMfYl3ZdNmaNU. This video walks you through some awesome tool that I wish were available when I was getting out of debt kzbin.info/www/bejne/pHLYd5WvqcmskMk. Last thing, you have to stand up and say NEVER AGAIN! The person who sat down and signed up for the first loan can never do that again. The person who decide to sign this lease with a $1678/month has to understand that was not nor should it ever been a option. This way of thinking has to change. The reason is simple, you can pay off this car or worst file bankruptcy, either way you start fresh and if your thought process don't change you will find yourself back into another bad deal down road. I say that because that is what I had to do. Even though I don't have debt now, I could wake up tomorrow go $100k in debt. The only reason I don't is because my way of thinking has changed and now building wealth is atop of my priority list. No scams, no games, no shortcuts! This is a long post 112k is a long number too⌚

If you get rid of it now and use your downpayment that is $3k of bad baggage going into another car deal but on a older car with more miles. It sounds like trouble. If the GTI had to go ASAP. I would get a small $6000 personal loan from the credit union pay the car off and use my $3k to buy a cheap car for $3k. You can always save up and upgrade later. What don't you like about the car?

Forget your credit don't go broke for a car! Unfortunately the bank does not care if the car runs or not so you will be on the hook for both the repairs and the loan. I would not get a new car because you will end up paying for two cars at one time. I would talk to some engine repair shops in your area. Google "engine builders near me" Hint this is not the same place that do oil changes and brakes. Get 2-3 estimate and save up the money and get car repaired. Then you can either work to pay it off fast as possible or sell it and cover the negative equity out of pocket. If you trade it in now this is what you can look forward too. They'll give you 10k for your 23k and sell you a new car at 20k but your loan will be 36k (negative equity + TTL). Oh and they is not guarantee that the new car will be problem free even if it is brand new. One year from now you will owe 34k on a car that is worth 15k. The new car will depreciated. Cost for a new engine 5k meaning you will spend 33k for a 5k problem. Don't do this! My number are just examples but the point stand.

The outcome of this is you will be upside on the next car from day one and depending on your interest rate and term length it will get worse before it gets better. The reason is 2 of your 4k down is going towards paying off the old car and the remaining 2K is not enough to cover TTL on a 26k dollar car. Also, a 26k car is going to depreciate faster than a 11k car. I would say ask yourself how does the new car price fit into your overall financial goals. Say 3-5 years from now! I don't know about you but to me car payments suck and I would rather use that money other things.

I’m probably like $12k - $14k in the hole because I had negative equity from another vehicle. I ended up getting a 2019 Hyundai Sonata new on the lot which made my payment 511 a month and my interest rate is 4%. I was thinking about getting a lease to get rid of the negative equity but idk anymore.

I'm pretty much in a very similar situation. I have 10k negative equity because I leased a new car and when the lease was up I got a 2019 Hyundai sonata also which has terrible depreciation values. I recommend keeping the Sonata. No bank would approve u with that much negative equity on another car loan if u traded it in. It's not worth the hard inquiries to find out. 4% is really good, keep making the $511/mth or more.

I have 10,00 negative equity. My transmission went out that would cost me $10,200, multiple shops priced out. I owe 12,300 and trade in for it they gave me 2400.

Question , I’m 11k upside down in a loan but my car engine blew out and I’m not getting quoted for less then what my car is actually worth (about 5k) to get it fixed . Don’t have the money to pay for the engine or the remaining balance of the vehicle . Now my trade in value is not looking too good either .Your video is great but I’m still confused as to what I should do . Any advice helps !!

Thank you but I don't think you will like the solutions. Is the car worth 5k fixed or as is with the blew engine? What I suggested for another subscriber that worked out well was to google "engine repair shops near me" and get another opinion. This is a shop that specializes in building engines not brakes and oil changes. A lot of shops save you need an engine when you really don't or have other options. If you don't have the money you will have to park the car while you save up. Trading now may solve your problem today but create bigger problems later. I'm guessing that 11k was built up over multiple car loans and it can get worse. I've seen $40k in negative equity! You have to stop the bleeding and face this head-on. The other options still involve paying less money but ruining your credit in the process. Get another opinion before you make any descisions.

@@DiamondEdwards with the car in working condition I was quoted around 5k . With the engine blown out, with the places that I’ve gone to , I’m now being quoted $2000 for trade in. You’re right you’re response is the hard truth lol but your reply is appreciated. Thank you !

2:59 I have a vehicle that I owe 25k one, and one day I decided to go trade it in, the dealership offered me 18k which means I had a negative equity of 7k. Let's say I role it over into the next loan. Will I end up paying like over 10k or more with interests?

I have a 2017 basic Elantra.with 6k negative equity. I want a new car, I hate driving this one. It’s small and it feels like plastic. Really wanting a backup camera as well. My credit just made it to good standing, it was poor when I applied for the financing. What’s my best option if I definitely want to get rid of this car ? Currently paying 406montly

I feel you and if it was me I would use that hatred toward it to fuel my quest to get that $6k in negative equity paid off as fast as possible. If you get rid of it without paying the difference you will end up with more than $6k in negative equity just on a nicer car which you will also hate. In the meantime, maybe drop $200-$300 on a backup cam. Hit up a car audio shop or BestBuy.

I owe about $21k on a 2017 Honda Accord but is only worth about $16k... so about $5k in negative equity. Got my newborn on the way and needing more space in a vehicle. Looking to trade in and get a truck at 55k, what do you think?

Is the Accord a two door? Is that $55k or a truck with 55k miles? How does a $55k car fit into your overall financial picture? I had a baby this year and I have F-150 and a 2 door coupe. Everyone was telling me to buy a new car. I briefly thought about spending $15-20k cash on a SUV which I quickly decided not to buy. Instead I used a good chuck of the $20k to jump start my kids 529 college fund and put a chuck of money into a UTMA just in case he wants to start a business or something. We've grow both of these account over the next 18 years. This is what I mean by "how does it fit into your overall financial picture" I would be sick if couldn't fund my children's future or my retirement because I was suck with large car payment. Also, I realized both cars don't need to "family friendly". Whoever need to carry the baby will take the truck and if needed I could put a car seat in the backseat of the coupe. Lastly, the thing I realized after paying off my F-150 last year is that car payments suck and I can't go back! Let me know if this was helpful and thanks for watching.
