Selling Used Cars - How to Sell a Used Car for the Most Money!

When it comes to selling a used car the market is huge. Believe it or not, many people prefer the more economical route of buying a used car. However, selling used cars can be an art.

Below are the steps I have used to maximize the money I get when selling used cars

Clean the car!

Be sure to clean your car. Consult our series on car detailing to make it look its best. Wash and wax the outside of the car. The better the car looks, more valuable it will look. It also is an indicator as to how well you may have treated the car previously.

Don't ignore the interior!

Potential buyers will likely scour every inch of the car inside and out. A dirty interior will surely turn off most buyers. Vacuum the entire car including the carpet, seats, mats and doors. Wash out any stains that may be present. Take a towel with a quality interior cleaner and wipe down all of the hard surfaces inside the car being sure to not leave any streaks behind. Don't ignore any cracks or crevices! Each extra little touch you add will make the car that much better. A better looking car usually sells for more and far more quickly, and time as they say, is money!
