5 Tips For Selling My Car

 

“Selling My Car Was Hassle Free…..”

1. Find Your Title

I know it sounds simple but I can’t tell you the amount of times that I buy cars from people that don’t even know what a title looks like. The title is an important looking document that says “Certificate of Ownership” on it.

If you have the title in hand it shows that you own it free and clear. Furthermore, if you still owe money on it then the lender will hold it until you make your last payment at which time they will mail it to you.

A dealer can buy your car if you have lost the title with a duplicate form but he will have to wait a period of time until he gets the title from the DMV. Most noteworthy is that additional time he has to wait might be reflected in what he pays you for your car.

2. Find Out What Your Car is Worth Ahead of Time

I may be shooting myself in the foot here but having good information helps everybody. Consequently, a good place to start is Kelley Blue Book but it has to be used properly. Enter your car, mileage, select options carefully and click on “Trade-In” value. This will give you a fair picture of what your car is worth.  The most common mistake is people tend to check “Private Party” which is approximately what the dealer would ask for your car.

3. Clean Your Car!

This one is obvious. Nobody wants to buy a dirty car! Plus it could work to your advantage. Every little thing that a buyer sees that he doesn’t have do means more dollars in your pocket. In addition, there is no downside to making your car look its best. Here’s a tip: Go to Pep Boys or Autozone and get some touch-up paint that matches your car. Touch up all those little scratches on the drivers door and bumper.

4. Do Those Minor Repairs.

I hear all the time: “It just needs a battery” or “It has a flat tire.” Well, if that’s all it is, fix it and I’ll tell you why. If you are not able to get it running and bring it to us we have to figure in the cost of our time coming to you, the cost of repairs and towing back to our location. Especially relevant is that it will be deducted from what we can pay you. Furthermore, epending on the year, make and model of your car that could be hundreds if not a thousand extra in your pocket.

5. Call Dennis Buys Cars!
