Car prices are rising, yet auto loan rates remain low, at least for now; to get behind the wheel, borrowers are taking out larger loans than ever before.
To help buyers take advantage of the lowest auto loan rates today from local institutions, GOBankingRates released a list of the best rates in Houston.
“Although mortgage rates are increasing, auto loan rates are still low,” said Amanda Garcia, of GOBankingRates. “GOBankingRates consistently finds auto loan rates below 3% at many community banks and credit unions.”
GOBankingRates also surveyed the average auto loan rates on the city, state and national levels.
