WHY BUY-HERE, PAY-HERE?

A growing segment of the car buying market is looking for basic, reliable, effective transportation; while at the same time conventional financing is beyond the needs of these customers. Reasons for this growth: increased credit refusals; a staggering economy; increasing new and used vehicle pricing and an expanding market for inexpensive, dependable transportation.

As a result, there has been tremendous growth in the sub-prime auto financing industry.

WHAT IS BUY-HERE, PAY-HERE?

Buy-Here, Pay-Here dealers have a specific market niche because they provide other means of financing to those who have been unable to qualify for conventional financing. They are able to make credit decisions and complete the sale of a vehicle in minutes as compared to hours or days for finance companies. Local collection methods enable managers to respond immediately & effectively to avoid delinquencies.

 

 The intent of this TWO DAY seminar is to educate potential and new dealers on the scope of the BHPH business. This seminar will give an overview and an insight into the BHPH industry so you can succeed and prosper in the BHPH business.
