How To Get The Most Money From Selling Your Car

Whether you’re ready to sell your car today or just planning ahead, there are a few things you can do to prepare your vehicle so that you can get the most value out of it.

Keep Your Car’s Documents Handy – From the moment you purchase a new (or used) vehicle, make sure you store your documents in a safe place. During regular maintenance, keep your car’s inspection records and prepare itemized copies (with service receipts) for prospective buyers. This helps potential buyers see that you’ve kept up the car’s maintenance and that you’re selling a reliable vehicle.

Regular Vehicle Maintenance – Doing regular oil changes is a great indication of good upkeep, especially if you changed your oil every 3,000-8,000 miles, in line with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

Clean Your Vehicle Thoroughly – When you’re ready to sell, make sure you clean your vehicle thoroughly. This includes washing and waxing the exterior, removing all clutter in the car and trunk, vacuuming and wiping down all interior surfaces, and cleaning all the windows. You may consider having it detailed by a professional to save you time. Don’t forget to also replace burnt-out lights or fuses and top off all fluids.
