The short answer

How buy-here-pay-here actually works at FLAS

Buy here pay here means Fort Lauderdale Auto Sales is both the dealer and the lender, based in Oakland Park. There is no outside bank, no credit check, and no minimum FICO score. Approval is based on verifiable income and local residency. Vehicles start at $9,995, most payments run between $200 and $400 a month, and every car includes a 90-day warranty serviced by Front Line Auto, our own ASE-certified repair shop.

The $1,000 standard down payment (or $500 for qualifying buyers) is the down payment on the vehicle, not the entire drive-away total. Florida collects 6% state sales tax plus 1% Broward County surtax on the first $5,000, and Florida tag, title, and registration transfer run about $400. You can also trade in your current vehicle to cover part or all of the down payment.

To drive home the same day, bring a valid government ID (driver's license, state ID, passport, or ITIN), your two most recent pay stubs or 60 days of bank statements, proof of residence, and your down payment. Explore our $1,000 down cars or $500 down cars to see current inventory and exact qualification details.

In-House Dealership Financing

Buy here pay here made direct and simple.

At a traditional car dealership, your loan is brokered to outside banks that evaluate you by a three-digit credit score. At Fort Lauderdale Auto Sales, we are the lender. We finance you in-house with no bank middlemen, no credit score minimums, and direct weekly or bi-weekly payments tailored to your schedule.

/ 01
Direct Lender
No bank middlemen.

Because Fort Lauderdale Auto Sales finances its own inventory, your contract is with us directly. No bank fees, no waiting on outside loan officers, and no automated denials.

/ 02
Income-Based
Approved on ability to pay.

We do not look at past credit scores or past bankruptcies. If you have verifiable income and proof of residency in South Florida, you can get approved today.

/ 03
Flexible Cadence
Aligned to your paycheck.

Choose weekly or bi-weekly payments that match your exact payday. Pay in cash at our Oakland Park lot or set up convenient ACH drafts.

Approval Checklist

What you need for same-day drive away.

Bring these four items when you visit our Oakland Park lot, and you can complete your application, test drive your vehicle, and drive home in under an hour.

1. Valid Photo ID
Government Identification

Valid Florida driver's license, state ID card, passport, or consular ID. If you do not have a license yet, see our no license required cars guide.

4. Down Payment
$500 Qualifying / $1,000 Std

$0 down vs. real approval

We do not bait you with zero down fine print.

If you are searching for no-money-down buy here pay here cars, the honest answer is this: FLAS does not build deals around $0 down promises. A real down payment keeps the financed amount smaller and makes the payment plan easier to understand.

Qualifying buyers can start at $500 down; $1,000 is standard. Trade-ins can help cover part of the down payment, and every approved vehicle still gets the same inspection and 90-day warranty.

From the owner
“Most buy-here-pay-here lots can't diagnose what they're selling. We can. Every car goes on the lift, gets a full Autel system scan, and a road test before it hits our lot. Some dealers, they don't know jack — they just bid blindly at auction.”
— Omari Grant, Owner & ASE-Certified Mechanic

Why FLAS

Inspection

Owner Omari Grant inspects every car before bidding. Multi-point inspection on the lift, road test, full system scan with the Autel IM-608. Cars that fail don't make it to the lot.

/ 02
Repair shop
