Did you know we will buy your car? Like, without you having to trade it in to purchase something else. It's true! It's like a reverse dealership! You bring your car to us, and we'll buy it.
We will look at any make, any model, any mileage and make you an offer! Even if there's a payoff!
Do I need to buy a car to sell my car?
Nope! We'll buy yours even if you don't buy ours!
Honestly, we're always looking for good vehicles. We're especially looking for good vehicles right now. It may be the best possible time to sell a car. Worst case scenario is we give you an appraisal that includes a walkaround, inspection, and a quick trip on a lift and you have a number to compare to other offers.
How do you determine my offer?
There are a few factors that go into it. We look at your car’s year, make, model, mileage, and vehicle history report. We examine your car’s condition inside and out. Some things increase your vehicle's value (accessories, upgrades, etc.) and some things can decrease it (frame damage, water damage, etc.). We look at Maine Auto Dealer's Association estimates as well as other calculators like Kelley Blue Book or Edmunds. We test drive your car and check to see if the things that are supposed to work, like the brakes and turn signals, are in fact working. We understand that some people are very car tidy and some people are not. Don't worry. That's not as big a deal as some people fret it is. The most important thing is the vehicle's long-term health.
Do you buy leased cars? Cars that still have payments due?
Yes! We'll buy a vehicle that's leased or still has payments. It's no sweat to take a vehicle off your hands when you'd like us to. Leases can get a little tricky, because more manufacturers are limiting where vehicles can be returned. If it's a Subaru, we can say definitively yes. Other makes are a maybe until we know the make and have a chance to try.
Why sell to you?
Frankly, chances are you can get a higher cash offer from a private sale than with us. There are costs we have to cover when taking in a vehicle and preparing to turn around and sell it that aren't a factor for private sale. But (there's always a but) a private sale isn't always the best deal.
It depends on what your priorities are. You have total control over the transaction, but that means you have total control over the transaction. So, you're pricing, advertising, fielding inquiries, negotiating, and processing payment. We make an offer and cut a check. We can do that same day. So, it's faster and smoother with us. It's not necessarily quite as much on the dollar end (though it can be), but it's a lot of hassle to take off your plate.
And, again, we're always happy to look at it and let you know what we think, even if you decide to decline our offer! At least then you have an idea based on third-party feedback when you talk to someone else.
