What documents are needed for selling a car?

When you visit us to sell your vehicle, plan to bring your car along with all keys and remotes, the vehicle title or loan payoff information, a valid state-issued photo ID and your vehicle registration. Having these items ready helps keep the appraisal and sale process moving smoothly. Our team is happy to answer any questions about your paperwork before you arrive.

How does car mileage affect resale value?

Mileage is one of several factors our team considers when appraising your vehicle, since it helps reflect overall wear and remaining life. That said, higher mileage doesn't disqualify your car, and we welcome vehicles of every make, model and mileage.

What factors determine a car's resale value?

A vehicle's resale value is shaped by its overall condition, mileage, history and current market demand. Our knowledgeable team looks at the complete picture of your car rather than any single detail. This balanced approach helps us present you with a competitive, honest offer you can feel confident about.

How do dealer trade-ins compare to private sales?

Selling privately can be time-consuming and unpredictable, often involving online listings, phone calls and meetings with strangers.
