FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT RV FINANCING
How does RV financing work?
RV financing allows you to spread the cost of your RV over a set loan term with fixed monthly payments. Once approved, you'll make monthly payments based on the loan amount, interest rate, and financing term selected.
Can I finance a used RV?
Yes. Many lenders offer financing for both new and used RVs. Eligibility, loan terms, and interest rates may vary based on the RV's age, condition, and value.
What credit score do I need to finance an RV?
There is no single minimum credit score required for RV financing. Buffalo Trail Recreation works with multiple lenders that offer financing options for a variety of credit profiles, from excellent credit to customers who are rebuilding their credit.
Can I get RV financing with less than perfect credit?
Yes. We work with lenders that specialize in helping customers with a wide range of credit situations. Even if you've experienced credit challenges in the past, financing options may still be available.
How much money down should I put on an RV?
Down payment requirements vary depending on the lender, your credit profile, and the RV being purchased. While a larger down payment can reduce monthly payments, some financing programs may require little or no money down for qualified buyers. Often times, lenders will prefer to see 10% - 20% down, which can unlock your best financing terms.
What documents do I need to apply for RV financing?
Most lenders require basic personal information, proof of income, employment information, identification, and details about the RV being purchased. Additional documentation may be requested depending on your financing situation.
How long does RV financing approval take?
Many financing applications receive an initial decision within hours, while some may take one to two business days depending on lender requirements and documentation needed.
Can I finance an RV if I am self employed?
Yes. Self-employed buyers can often qualify for RV financing. Lenders may request additional documentation such as tax returns, bank statements, or proof of business income.
Can I include taxes, fees, and accessories in my RV loan?
In many cases, taxes, registration fees, service contracts, protection plans, and certain accessories can be included in the financing package, subject to lender approval.
What loan terms are available for RV financing?
RV financing terms often range from 5 to 20 years depending on the loan amount, lender guidelines, and the age of the RV. Longer terms can help lower monthly payments. A general rule of thumb is this: financing over $50,000 can allow 20 year terms, financing between $25,000 and $49,999 allows for 15 year terms, and financing less than than $25,000 would range from 5-12 years.
Can I trade in my current RV and finance the difference?
Yes. Many customers use the value of their current RV as a trade-in toward their next purchase. The trade value can often be applied toward the down payment or purchase price of the new RV.
Can first time RV buyers qualify for RV financing?
Absolutely. Many first time RV buyers successfully finance their RV purchase. Our finance team can help explain available options and guide you through the financing process.
What factors affect my RV loan interest rate?
Interest rates are influenced by several factors, including credit history, loan term, down payment amount, RV age, loan amount, and current market conditions.
Can I refinance my RV loan later?
Yes. Some RV owners choose to refinance their loan to lower their monthly payment, reduce their interest rate, or change their loan term as their financial situation improves.
