Like with loans, we'll explain all terms and conditions associated with your lease to ensure you're fully informed before signing. Our team is always available to answer any questions or concerns you may have.

Understanding Credit

Your credit score is a three-digit number that reflects your financial history and credibility. Lenders use this number to determine your creditworthiness and assess the level of risk associated with lending you money.

Importance of Credit Score

A higher credit score indicates a lower risk, making lenders more likely to offer you favorable terms and rates. Your credit score can also affect other aspects of your life, such as insurance rates and rental agreements.

Factors That Affect Credit Score

Your credit score is based on various factors, including payment history, outstanding debt, length of credit history, new credit inquiries, and types of credit used. To maintain a healthy score, monitor your credit report regularly and address any errors or discrepancies.

Tips for Improving Credit Score

If you have a less-than-ideal credit score, there are steps you can take to improve it over time. From making timely payments to keeping credit card balances low, our finance team will share practical tips and best practices to boost your credit score and enhance your financial standing.
