How borrowing works locally
A deposit or trade-in reduces the amount financed and therefore the interest charged over the term.
A broker arranges credit but does not lend, and the lender remains the party that makes the decision. A prepayment privilege allows a borrower to pay more than the scheduled amount, sometimes with a charge attached.
