    Used boat loan

    I have never bought a used boat with a loan. I have always bought new with loan. i am looking at getting an otherwise possibly out of reach new boat for the same model a few years old with warranty still in place.....essential at a boat I really want used so at a lower price. Is the used boat loan based on NADA or a percentage of NADA?

    Thank you

    Thank you for the question. Yes used loans are based on NADA. How the loan amount VS value is viewed varies with the lender. Some work from MSRP down and others from trade in value up. Each lender looks at add on differently as well. Nothing black and white, it changes by the lender and the program they run. The only common is that they all use NADA. How they use it changes.
    Let me know if we can help.
    Thank you,

    I highly recommend using REC if your purchasing a boat... used or new.

    I don’t need to be smart cause I used REC to purchase my last boat several years ago... and will be calling soon to purchase my next/last boat.

    Every time I buy a new boat I think that's the last one... But seems like I am not the only one like this. Honestly, I became addicted and every day I update the latest models of boats. Due to this, two years ago I reached the point when I didn't manage to sell the previous boat, that's why I didn't have enough money to pay for the new one. So, because at that moment I have already started the process of purchasing that boat, I was looking for different options to get the necessary amount of money in a fast and safe way. Luckily, I came across https://credit-10.com/lv/moneza-kredits/, and I applied for a loan. After that experience, I decided that I will never buy anything until I have enough money.

    Probably a good idea to at least deal with companies that print in English.

    We are not a lender so we do not have any terms. Lenders set the terms and rates.
    The only options financing full amounts right now are higher rates. Banks don't like risk and full
    financing is all their risk.
    Let me know,
    Ken
