What Is A Car Insurance Down Payment? |
I see these commercials for cheap car insurance with a "low down payment". I've had three car insurance companies in my life and not a single one has required a down payment. Why would anyone choose a company that did?
| Answer: You buy your car insurance, it's a policy for a year, or six months. MOST people don't want to, or can't, pay for the policy "up front" when they buy it - they want "payments". The DOWN payment, is the first payment of your policy, if you're making monthly payments. We buy our car insurance six months at a time, and just pay the bill, twice a year. No "down payment". But MOST of the world, pays for it from month to month. |
"For conventional loans, a minimum down payment of 5 percent is acceptable for borrowers with excellent credit, but they will also have to pay private mortgage
