Reader question:

Can I purchase auto insurance with no down payment?

Greg

Sure, Greg.

If you speak to an auto insurance agent, they can usually locate a company for you that offers auto insurance with no down payment. These companies are everywhere and aren’t too hard to find, and they allow you to pay your first payment first, but pay an equal payment to that every month, rather than paying a high percentage of your 6 month or yearly premium up front.

So, yeah, auto insurance with no down payment is available. But is it a good idea?

Honestly, you would do better for yourself to avoid guarantees like auto insurance with no down payment, because although they may do something to save you money in the short term, they cost you more in the long term. No down payment means higher monthly premiums and less constant disposable income for you. No down payment also means that you will pay in installment, which has its own fee.

take care,
