Cash Down for Cash Deals with Outside Financing 

2 Min Read

Release Date: June 2026

Overview 

Deal Central now ensures Cash Down on cash deals is applied consistently across the deal, so totals, lender checks and documents reflect the correct values without needing additional steps.  

The Problem We Solved 

Dealer-entered Cash Down values routed to a generic field rather than a distinct field causing downstream issues across the deal:  

  • Deal recap math did not include the cash down payment. 
  • Contracts were mislabeled, causing dealers to manually correct deals to move forward 
  • Funding escalations increased due to discrepancies 

What’s Improved 

  • Cash Down now routes to a dedicated field automatically 
  • Deal Breakdown reflects Cash Down as a separate, visible line item 
  • Total Amount Due calculates consistently using Cash Down 
  • Print Proposals show Cash Down clearly labeled and deducted 
  • Lender checks for outside lienholders are calculated accurately 
  • No changes to the user interface or how values are entered 

How It Works (At A Glance) 

  • Enter Cash Down—no new process required 
  • Value is stored in the dedicated location automatically 
  • Deal math updates correctly across the workspace 
  • Documents reflect accurate values end-to-end 
  • No manual corrections needed 

Summary: Why This Matters 

  • Lender checks align with the deal  
  • Funding issues are reduced  
  • Contracts and proposals stay consistent across the deal 
  • Deals move forward without manual re-entry or correction
