First of all, refinance means that shifting the loan facility from current loan provider to new loan provider. Usually, home refinance or other landed property refinance is common. Property refinance is common than car refinance because most of the property value will appreciate. Only in some area, the price will depreciate. But for car, the value will always drop unless for antique cars which the loan might have completed.
Refinance car loan can be profitable if the rates that we get from the new provider are lower than the current provider. Also, if you are paying an amount that you are not able to pay; you can always refinance to a new provider and demand for lower monthly payments. This could be a good reason going for refinance car loan. There are plenty of reasons and benefits that the sales person will try to point to you for car refinance.
However, I don’t suggest going for refinance if you have very small amount of outstanding balance. Reason; the conversion and legal fee to refinance car loan might be higher to cover after saving from the interest rate. Try to do some calculation on your own and check whether you are doing a losing business there. Also, check for the providers that give free moving cost which means the provider will absorb the transfer cost like legal fees, stamp duty, bank fees, etc.
There are many providers provides this service. Some comes with penalty of early settlements. You need to check their flaws and rules in the loan agreement before signing up. Take your time to read and understand every line stated in the loan agreement paper works. Make sure to check all the promises that the sales person made is stated in the loan agreement. If there is any problem, this paperwork will work with legal issues not the verbal promises by the sales.
