Your credit report will be affected every time you make a loan application of any kind. If you have credit issues, other companies may very well send your application to multiple lenders with the hope that one of them will approve you. This can be very damaging for your credit report, as it will suddenly show a lot of inquiries which can significantly lower your credit score. At Performance Car Loans, we take an entirely different approach and select a lender best suited to your unique situation. We forward your application only after careful review and consideration, and this means that you have a far greater chance of getting approved on the very first try.
