To apply for financing, you'll typically need:

- **Government ID** (driver's license, passport)
- **Proof of income** (recent pay stubs or tax returns)
- **Proof of residence** (utility bill or lease agreement)
- **Employment info** (current employer details)
- **Existing debt info** (credit card, loan statements)

If trading in a vehicle, bring your registration and keys. Having these ready speeds up the process and shows lenders you're organized and serious.

**Call (219) 250-9487** or visit Castle CDJR to discuss what you need and start your application. Our Finance team will guide you through every step.
