Car Financing in Regency Oaks, Berkeley

Before you buy in Regency Oaks

CarmaCars does not sell cars. We rent them, which makes us a good place to try a model before you buy. If credit is the obstacle, a monthly rental is one way to have a car while you sort it out; renting is not a loan, so there is no credit check. Banks and credit unions arrange car loans; CarmaCars does not, but we can rent you a car while you sort one out.

Why rent first

Testing the car for a week shows how it handles your parking, your passengers and your bags. Try the car on a highway drive, a grocery run and a tight parking spot before you sign. A rental shows you the small things: the seat after an hour, the blind spots, the trunk with your stroller in it.

A buyer's checklist

Read the contract before you sign, and ask about every fee you do not understand. Look at real fuel use for the model, not only the advertised figure. Check the date on the tires and the condition of the brakes. Ask how many owners the car has had and how it was used.

Bridging the gap

A rental means you never have to rush a purchase because you need wheels. If the purchase falls through, you still have a car to drive. Selling privately can take time; a rental means no rush.
