Good news: we make the paperwork process straightforward. When you're ready to finalize financing, we'll need some basic information-but we guide you through it step by step.

**Typically we ask for:**
- A valid driver's license
- Proof of income (pay stub, tax return, or employment letter)
- Proof of address (utility bill or lease agreement)
- Social Security number for credit check
- Insurance information

If you're trading in a vehicle, bring your title and keys. If you're financing, we'll handle coordinating with your lender on any additional paperwork they need.

Our team will let you know exactly what to bring when you visit-and if something's missing, we can often work around it or guide you on next steps.

The goal is to make this easy and stress-free for you. Call **(630) 598-9986)** before you come in, and we'll tell you exactly what to have ready so everything flows smoothly.
