Bringing the right documents speeds up financing. Typically you'll need a valid government ID, proof of income (recent pay stubs or tax returns), proof of residence (utility bill or lease), and proof of insurance. If you're trading in a vehicle, bring its title and maintenance records. For pre-approval or to ask about your specific situation, our Finance team can tell you exactly what to gather. Having these ready means we can focus on getting you into your new vehicle faster. **Get prepared.** Call **(815) 453-8566** and ask what documents you should bring, or start your application online at **castlekiamchenry.com** to see what's needed. We'll make the day smooth.
