The T.O.P. Method™ · Take Over Payments

Take Over the Payments.
Skip the Bank.

The T.O.P. Method™ stands for Take Over Payments. It's a structured way to buy or sell a vehicle using the financing that already exists on it. Instead of the buyer qualifying for a brand-new loan, the buyer takes over the seller's existing payments, with contracts, insurance, and every step documented, until the vehicle is paid off or refinanced. The seller gets out from under a payment they no longer want. The buyer gets the vehicle without starting from zero at a bank.

That's creative finance for vehicles in one idea: instead of cash or new credit, the deal is built around an existing loan or a new seller finance loan. Payment takeovers, seller financing, or a hybrid of the two. It's how deals get done when the traditional route doesn't fit. TOP Wheels coordinates that kind of deal from intake to keys, so both sides are protected the entire way.
