Here at Freedom CDJR of Lexington, weā€™re helping drivers from Lexington, Richmond, and Georgetown, KY, in this process. Get to know more about how to sell your car to a dealership by reading below.


Prepare for Selling

Washing Your VehicleBefore you can sell your vehicle, you want to have it prepared to maximize the value as much as possible. There are a few steps you can take to do this.

First, have your vehicle cleaned to give it the best appearance. Vacuum and polish the interior and wash and detail the exterior for the best presentation. You can also have your vehicle inspected to ensure that everything functions properly. Make any repairs needed and have the oil changed before you sell. This can also help you get the maximum value back in return.

Before you sell, you should also take time to have any documents prepared for the selling process. You can also provide a vehicle history report that can help the dealership in re-selling the vehicle in the future.


Benefits of Selling to a Dealership

When you decide to sell your car, there can be many benefits to going through a dealership to do so. First, you donā€™t have to have a buyer lined up immediately. The dealership is buying the vehicle from you and will work on their own to get a new driver behind the wheel in the days and weeks to come. You simply get the value you deserve in return for your vehicle.

A dealership can also complete a thorough inspection of the vehicle as you prepare to sell, allowing you to get a fair value. At our dealership, weā€™ll also include $500 extra for KBBĀ® value and match any competitor pricing.


Finance TeamWork With Our Team

Another part of the selling experience at our dealership is the team we provide. We make it our goal to provide a quality experience thatā€™s comfortable from start to finish.

You can work with our experts to determine the value of your vehicle and then consult on how to utilize it going forward. We can help you apply that value to a new vehicle, or you can save the money you make from selling your vehicle for another purchase in the future.

If you have any questions during the selling process, weā€™re happy to help.
