If you’re in the market to buy a new or used vehicle, you might be looking to sell or trade-in your new vehicle. If you don’t want to put the time and effort into selling your vehicle, your best bet is to trade-in your vehicle. Before you trade in your vehicle there are a few things you should know and some research that should be conducted before you head to the dealership to trade-in. If you have never traded-in before or maybe you just need a little refresher then check out all of our tips and tricks below! If you’re ready to trade in your old vehicle for a shiny new one, then check out our website and go to the “Trade Appraisal” page!

 

Get Your Car’s Trade-In Value;

  • To determine if you’re being offered a reasonable price on your trade-in car, you first must know what your car is worth.
  • It is important to accurately describe and be honest about the condition of your vehicle.

 

What Do You Owe:

  • If you have not paid off your trade-in, you will only get the difference of what your vehicle is worth and what you owe on it
  • If you owe more than the vehicle is worth you’ll most likely end up pay and getting no money back

 

Have All The Documents

  • Be sure to have your title
  • Bring your loan documents if you’re still paying off the vehicle
  • Bring maintenance records

 

Negotiate

  • Come into the dealership with a good idea of what your vehicle is worth and what you’re willing to pay
  • Be ready to negotiate why your vehicle deserves a certain price
