Westlake specializes in prime to sub-prime automotive financing, helping car dealerships do what they do best : sell cars. Our unique credit approval software (known as "The Buy Program ") allows dealers to get an on-the-spot loan approval without waiting for callbacks, faxbacks, or rehashes.

Headquartered in Southern California, Westlake originates indirect retail installment contracts through a network of 21,000 new and used car dealers throughout the United States. All collections and servicing are performed in-house from its central facility located in the Mid-Wilshire area of Los Angeles. Westlake's success did not just happen overnight. It took years of hard work, cultivation, and smart intuition to get to where we are today. Not content to rest on our laurels, Westlake continues to build and refine, always keeping our dealers and customers in mind.
