Hi, I am a co-buyer from a new car loan that was bought 8 months ago. I asked the help of my brother in law since I am new here in the USA and doesn't have a credit history. It turns out he has a fair credit score and we got approved on an 11.25% apr for 73 months. I'm the one doing the monthly payments from the start. Now I'm contemplating on refinancing the loan. Is it wise to do so?. My present credit scores are 730,730,711.
How do I go about:
1) Removing my brother in law as the primary buyer from the contract.
2) Should I go ahead with the refinancing idea with my credit union or a) Just ask for rate modification from the present financial institution b) Take the present interest rate as it is and just pay much more than the minimum monthly payment to shorten the loan term.
Some advice will be most appreciated
Thanks!
