Home › Answers › What credit score do I need to buy a car in Oakland Park?
There's no hard minimum in Oakland Park. Prime banks want higher scores, but the second-chance and subprime lenders Elite Edge Auto Broker works with approve buyers across the board — including no-credit and scores in the 500s or below. Your score mostly affects your rate, not whether you can get approved at all; for many of these lenders, steady provable income and stability carry the approval. That's why "what score do I need" is the wrong question — the right one is "which lender fits my whole situation," and matching you to that lender is exactly what we do. Check your options free before assuming your score disqualifies you.
