A simple Answer TO yOUr Question
What happens to my car loan when I sell the car?
When you sell a car with an outstanding loan, the loan does not simply disappear. The payoff amount is sent directly to your lender, either by the buyer, a dealer, or through an escrow arrangement. Once the lender receives the full payoff, they release the lien on the title. Only then can the title be transferred to the new owner.

I called her needing a car and I had my car within a couple of days, while also meeting my price point and the specific style of car I wanted.

Great experience with Vantage. Was able to avoid the hassle of going to multiple car dealerships and the service was great. They Dropped off my new car, picked up my trade in and handed me a check. Will definitely use them in the future.

We just bought our 3rd car from Dave and his group. They make it so easy not having to go to a dealer, I wouldn't do it any other way. You tell them exactly what you want, they find it, get you a great deal and deliver it.....need I say more!!! Dave is a true professional.

I rarely write any reviews, I do find it necessary that I write one this time.I haven't purchased a new vehicle for quite some time. When I decided to move forward I dreaded the thought of having to go through the process of dealing with multiple dealerships, gathering quotes etc. and having to deal with pushy, non-transparent sales and finance people. Don't get me wrong, not all dealerships are that way or have staff looking to make big profit margins. If you've bought or leased any vehicle, you know those sales and finance guys are out there looking to make the absolute most profit possible. They get you going this way and that way. That's their business, to make money, I get that but the frustration, time and effort just isn't worth it to me.So, with that said, I was told by Brandon an employee of Vantage Auto Group to give them a try. Tommy C. was my contact and I have to say, from day one this was the best experience I had ever had with purchasing a new vehicle. No hassle, no frustration, no running back and forth to dealerships. Everything was taken care of with the utmost professionalism, transparency in order to satisfy the customer (Me). Aside from a minor setback which was corrected immediately, Tommy came through with the new truck that I was looking for. Hassle free, I received delivery even with a little parting gift which was very much appreciated.I am 100% satisfied and would highly recommend using Vantage Auto Group for your next lease or purchase of a new/used vehicle.Thanks again Tommy and All at Vantage Auto GroupA Happy customerAndy

I just got my 3rd car through Vantage Auto. The process has always been seamless. I've mostly worked with Sarah and she's always very responsive. She finds out what we want and our approximate budget and is quick to tell me what my options are - including some out of the box ideas. She's able to find good deals on cars we may not have previously considers. Sarah coordinates everything including test drives, picking up your old car, and delivering the new car. I've been very happy with the service I've received from Vantage and highly recommend them for your car shopping needs.
