    One thing Dave never mentions with cars is that if you have a loan on it and don't have the title with you that will scare alot of buyers away. It can take up to 4 weeks to receive the title after you pay off the loan. Most buyers will not be willing to give you 20k dollars if you don't have the title in hand

    @RichardWalls Před 3 lety +7

    Like anything else, you should shop around to different potential buyers. Dealers likely aren't going to give you the best deal, especially if you're also buying a car from them, as they'll mix in the trade-in value with the price they'll charge you on the new car. You could sell it on your own if you're not rushed to do so, which would net you the highest pay off if done right.

      Rip you off meaning they need to make money? If the car market value is $10k and the dealer gives you $10k, how are they going to make money when they resale the vehicle? If you don't like the number they give you, simply walk away. You say "rip off" but I say they're a business and need to make money just like any other business. Car dealership provide hundreds of jobs whether it be parts, service, sales, delivery drivers, front desk workers, title clerks and janitors so yes they need to be making money for payroll.

They will lie about what your trade in is worth and try to convince you that your research is incorrect. They will push you and wear you out until you agree to their terms. Then they will go right back around and tell the person who is considering buying that used car that they are making very little profit off it and that they can't budge because they already discounted the vehicle so much already. It wouldn't be so bad if dealerships didn't lie so much or beat you down emotionally to get you to accept their low ball offers.

    The problem with selling "private sale" is that it is a bit more risky. Selling to a random stranger, in a random location, and accepting a check that may or may not be good. Then that person may or may not register the car in their name, leaving you liable in the meanwhile. It's safer and better to sell to a reputable company.

    There’s a reason KBB gives you a value for dealers and a separate value for private sales, and the dealer is always lower. A dealer will flip it for a profit, a private buyer will drive it. If private sale is an option, always go private sale.

Agree to a certain time when buyer can take possession? I think this aspect could be why the caller is hesitant. It's an added layer of complexity, especially if you are a personality type like me who likes clear guidelines and certainty.

      We bought our car from someone who had a loan. We went into the bank with them and paid cash for it and then had the title immediately switched to our name. It was easy because we all went to the same bank. We were kind of in a rush but if I did it again I would want the bank to first send the title to our local ranch so that we could pick it up as soon as we paid it off. As it was we had to wait for a few days for it to be sent to the bank and I went and picked it up but there was still some confusion because not everyone knew that the title was supposed to go to me. We did not know that the seller still owed on the vehicle when we made an offer though.

A man tried to rip off a relative selling a car. She did the above as I suggested. He was very upset that she deposited the cash immediately as he was planning to rob her afterwards and have the car and the money. The teller can check for counterfeit or verify funds for a bank transfer. Tell the buyer that they have a notary and can sign off the sales paperwork etc for you both.

He also offered the full asking amount without trying to negotiate the price down. Then when he initially handed her the cash it had Monopoly money in the middle. He was in the bank at that point so she caught him. He said it was a joke and pulled out the real money. He tried everything to keep her from doing the transaction inside the bank.

      The idea really is to educate everyone on the idea the caller's question is based on - should I sell to dealer or privately? The answer I think the caller was looking for was the advantages and disadvantages of each instead of merely the "why wouldn't you want to make x amount of money in a month?" thing. I'm sure the caller was smart enough not to need a lesson in money versus time. To sell privately wouldn't the caller have to spend more money in getting the car in presentable fashion? I don't think the guys insulted the caller per se but as a viewer I was curious to know some of the pros vs cons besides just the $ amount.
