Selling Your Car Online...Here are Some Helpful Tips

When I was young I grew up in a small Arizona town. To sell a car, I simply parked it on the busiest street corner with a for sale sign on it. However, my vehicles were not worth much so I wasn't worried about vandalism! But now I can afford more expensive vehicles and I want to get a reasonable price for my used car without over pricing it. How can you accomplish this. Here are 5 useful steps: Step 1 Determine Street Value To find the street value for your car, motorhome, boat, classic car or motorcycle can be easily configured by checking out your local newspaper and shoppers as well as performing an Online Search. You may have to actually call sellers to see if there vehicle is sold. Thusly, you'll know approximately what the highest price comparable vehicles are being sold for. Step 2 Book Value There are 3 main Book Value companies you can visit to configure your book value. Remember, you will need to choose the private party choice. The following companies can be used to find the values of autos, watercraft, recreational vehicles, collector cars, and even airplanes! Kelley Blue Book www.kbb.com Edmunds www.edmunds.com Nada Guides www.nadaguides.com I prefer Nada since they are the industry leader. Step 3 Popularity Value Depending on whether or not you own a popular style vehicle will also determine your asking price. Usually, you'll be able to decide upon a price range that you'll accept if you get an offer. The more popular your vehicle, chances are you'll be able to sell your vehicle at the higher price range. At this time most Japanese vehicles have a high resell value. For example, Honda, Toyota, and Nissan hold the highest residual value. However, if you own an SUV, they are in top demand!

If you price your vehicle too high you may never sell it or may take a long time. However, if you price it too low you may sell it immediately and then you will be kicking yourself in the rear! So do your homework! Also, when you run a search online for comparable vehicles and you notice that many are selling for $20,000 then it is advisable to price yours at $19,999. The $999 looks better and may be more attractive to a buyer. Step 5 Price Adjusting If needed, adjust your asking price based on the number of responses you recieve. If you are not getting the amount of inquiries, then you may have to lower your selling price. Only do so if you are comfortable with the lower price.
