A Complete Guide to the Car Buying Process

At Bill Walsh Streator, we’re here to make your car buying experience seamless and worry-free. Whether you’re getting behind the wheel of your first car or upgrading the one you’re currently driving, we’ll guide you through each step to ensure that your experience is smooth and enjoyable.

Step 1: How to Research Your Vehicle Options

Start your car-buying journey by doing thorough research. With so many options available, it’s important to consider your needs. Think about the following:

• Vehicle Type: Is a compact car, SUV, or a larger family car more suitable for your needs?
• Budget: Know your financial limits and how much you’re ready to spend on your new vehicle.
• Features: List the features you absolutely need, such as safety features, fuel economy, or technology

At Bill Walsh Streator's inventory, you’ll find a diverse selection of vehicles that match your needs

Step 2: Financing Your Car Purchase

Once you've selected the vehicle of your choice, it’s time to figure out how to finance your purchase. Here’s what you should know:

• Loan Options: Financing can be secured through your bank or dealership financing
• Credit Score: Your credit score will play a role in determining your interest rate and loan terms
• Down Payment: Putting down a bigger down payment can lower your monthly payments and simplify the loan

At Bill Walsh Streator's Finance Center, we are committed to helping you secure the best financing plan for your car purchase.

Step 3: The Test Drive and Finalizing Your Purchase

Now that you’ve arranged financing, the fun part—taking the car for a test drive—comes next! This is your chance to test the vehicle and see if it suits your needs. Here’s what to expect:

• Test Drive: Take the car for a spin and pay attention to its comfort, handling, and features
• Negotiation: Once you’re satisfied, it’s time to finalize the price and complete paperwork
• Closing the Deal: Our team is here to help you finalize the deal, including paperwork and any additional warranties or add-ons.

At Bill Walsh Streator, we ensure a smooth and easy transaction, guiding you through every step of the process
