To apply for financing, have these basics ready: a government-issued ID, proof of income (recent pay stubs or tax returns), proof of residency (utility bill or lease), and your Social Security number. If you have a co-signer, they'll need similar documents.

Our Finance team will guide you through exactly what's needed based on the lender's requirements. The process is straightforward and usually quick.

Start by calling (219) 250-9487 to ask about specific documents you should bring, or stop by 701 E Porter Ave in Chesterton. We're ready to get you rolling.
