If you’ve declared bankruptcy it won’t be a secret, at least
not to financial institutions. With this in mind, it’s important that
when you first approach a lender, you are prepared to explain fully what
happened and how you ended up a bankrupt. Usually a brief letter will
suffice and all you have to include in it is details of past loans etc
and any circumstances that contributed to you falling behind in
payments.
If you decide that bankruptcy auto loans are best for
you, then you can go the long route and call around to several
dealerships and find out if they have special financing and try to get
an idea what their car loan rates are. However, a number or financing
companies can provide you with a quote online, and you can find out if
you’ve been approved in as little as 60 seconds.
You might want
to wait till for at least 6 months after filing your bankruptcy or after
your bankruptcy is dismissed, clearing off all the necessary
out-standing debts before applying for a refinancing. Seek relevant
advice from the professional such as the bankruptcy specialist or credit
officer in this case.
