THE PRE-OWNED VEHICLE SELLING PROCESS

One of the many benefits of purchasing a pre-owned vehicle is a lower rate of depreciation, which is the rate at which a car loses its value. Most depreciation affects brand-new models, so your pre-owned model will retain most of its value over time. Still, there are some simple steps to ensure maximum return on value and ease of sale, including the following.

Do Your Research
You want to familiarize yourself with the vehicle’s value before you put it up for sale. Look at Kelley Blue Book values to get a sense of the market rate, and account for your car’s features and conditions before setting a sale price.

MAKE IT SHINE

You don’t want to put too much money into bringing your vehicle back to showroom condition, as the cost may not be returned. That said, washing and detailing, as well as minor repairs and replacements, can ensure you get the maximum possible value for your pre-owned model.

CONSIDER YOUR OPTIONS

When it comes time to sell your pre-owned vehicle, you have many different options. You can sell privately, to a dealership, or trade-in for the next ride. Compare your offers and options, look at the vehicle’s going rate, and consider your next model before deciding.

If you’d rather sidestep the many headaches and inconveniences of a private sale, why not trade in your current vehicle toward your next great Buick or GMC model? Brown and Wood Buick GMC will give you a fair price even if you’re not buying from us, so schedule an appointment with our expert Buick financing team to get started.
