Having the right documents ready speeds up the financing process. Typically, you'll need:

- **Valid driver's license or state ID**
- **Proof of income** (recent pay stubs, tax returns, or profit-and-loss statement for self-employed)
- **Proof of residence** (utility bill, lease, or mortgage statement)
- **Social Security number**
- **Current auto insurance info** (if you have a car)
- **Trade-in documents** (vehicle title, keys, maintenance records-if applicable)

Our Finance team will let you know if anything else is needed for your specific situation. Bring originals or certified copies when possible.
