Your new lender will pay off your existing loan and receive the title to your vehicle from your old lender. You then receive a new payment book and make out your new lower payments to the new lender. The customer must give their approval and the whole transfer process is taken care of by the two lenders. You will be sent the necessary documents to sign, and then the lender will finish the rest.

What is GAP Insurance?

New cars can depreciate as much as 20-30% in the first 2-3 years*. As a result, insurance payout can be much lower than the vehicle purchase price, even for those with full coverage. GAP (Guaranteed Auto Protection) insurance is additional protection to cover this "gap" between what one owes on a financed vehicle and its actual cash value, which is usually lower.

As an example, let's say you borrow $26,000 for a new car and it's totaled one month later. In the eyes of the insurance company, that vehicle has likely depreciated up to 30% (or about $7800) immediately after you drove it off the lot. Without GAP insurance, you could pay the full difference between what you owe to your lender and what your insurance company pays out to you! You can see why it's important.

Please note that GAP insurance is cancelled after refinancing a vehicle. TeamRefi will assist you in obtaining GAP with the new loan.
