I’m sure you’ve all heard that you shouldn’t buy a car in the rain because you won’t see the scratches. Well, you definitely shouldn’t buy a dirty car either; you’ll never figure out what that smell is under the back seat. There are so many variables when you are buying a car that the seller really needs to get to grips with how to sell privately.
Obviously, here at We Buy Any Vehicle there’s an expectation that people just want to get rid of the car and there’s some really normal reasons for this and the big one is they don’t want the hassle of selling privately even if that means they won’t get as much money, for some it’s really worth the trade off.
That said, you could still improve your chances of getting a sale by just washing and hovering your car, even get a full valet done on the car. In terms of putting a bit of effort in a valet just costs money with no effort but the results can be a total winner when the buyer comes calling.
How many times have you seen an ad online with a car that’s blurry, dirty or showing a dent that you can’t tell is upside down or a different car entirely. Photos really matter and these days a video really helps sales. I don’t mean just a picture of the outside, you need a picture of the interior, dash, millage, gearstick, wheels, engine bay, boot area you get me? If you want to sell fast you need to be more attractive that all other sellers who are trying harder than you.
A small bit of effort and a little money along with getting your phone out will make a difference to both the time your car takes to sell along with the price you get. No one wants to buy problems so take away some of them when selling your car and be ready to get those calls!
