If you are planning to sell your car then this article will help you understand what to watch out for when selling it. I have carefully listed out the things that will help you sell your car easily.
Watch out for non-buyers
When you post an ad for selling your car online you will get many inquiries but it is important to know which buyers and serious to avoid wasting your time in dealing with people who are not so serious about buying it. You will need to do proper screening of the people who contact you, after all, you would not want to waste any time on time wasters after getting your car ready to sell. There are people in the market who simply want to see how quickly you can reduce the price of your car and then there are some who want to scam you in some way or the other. There are a few things that these people say that can alert you and avoid them. You can start by asking the person’s full name and if they are from your area. If the person is from overseas then they might be looking to scam you. These people will hesitate to share their names, phone numbers, and their address.
Know the value of your car
Most of us plan to sell our car without knowing its true value of it. You will need to know our car’s book value to start with. You can check with local car sales sites and see similar cars and their selling price in the local market.
Avoid using your emotions when pricing your car
It is natural to have a special bond with your car after you’ve driven it for years. I know people who have named their cars and talked to them. If that is the case with you then you might think that your car is the best in the market but that is not the case. It is important to keep your emotions aside when setting a price for your car. If you set a high price for your used car the buyers may skip your ad altogether.
Beware of people who offer more money than the marketplace
If someone offers you more money than you expect, consider it a red flag. Also, look out for people who want you to ship the car overseas and promise to send you money from their county. These people are very convincing therefore use your common sense. Remember if something feels suspicious it probably is.
Look out for stranger danger
There have been incidents when a person took a car for a test drive and never came back or a stranger shows up at your door to buy a car but robs you. To be on the safer side you should create a separate email address to protect your privacy. Try to talk to the people interested in buying your car on the phone to get a feel for them; it is a better way to know more about it than then by emailing or texting. Remember a genuine buyer will have lots of questions about your car but a fake buyer will want to set up a meeting to see it immediately.
Another important thing to remember is to meet strangers in a public place rather than inviting them into your home. Don’t forget to tell your family or friends about the place and time of meeting to be sure that someone will know where you went in case of a mishap.
Also, take a picture of the person’s driver’s license before handing them the car for a test drive.
When taking payments be sure that you have been paid. Getting paid in cash or cashier’s check will keep you safe. Remember to clear your car by removing your personal belongings, receipts, or other documents you might have in the glove compartment.
Be cautious, not paranoid
It is wise to be cautious to avoid being scammed but don’t let it turn into paranoia. Be professional when dealing with a buyer and remember millions of people sell their cars every day without being scammed and you can be one of them if you pay attention to little details.
