Should I Sell My Car To A Private Party?

Now you may be wondering if selling your car privately could get you a better deal. Here’s a story for you:

Two people decide to sell their cars...

Maribel and Max are two long-time McAllen residents who both decide to sell their cars. They have the same vehicle, a 1996 Honda Civic, in the same price, color and condition. Max takes four weeks to sell his car and receives $800. A little while later, Max gets served with a lawsuit. Maribel takes one hour to sell her car and receives $1600 in cash. Soon after, Maribel gets a delicious plate of nachos for dinner. What was the difference between Maribel and Max’s car selling strategies? And how can you make sure your experience is more Maribel than Max?

How not to sell your car:

 

First, let’s see how Max went about selling his car:

 

He realizes his car had some scratches so he spends a few hours painting over them. Then he washes the car and finds a hand vacuum to clean out crumbs and dirt from the inside. By the end of the day, he is exhausted.

 

 

The next day, he takes some pictures of his car and uploads them onto a popular online sales website like craigslist and waits for the offers to role in.

 

 

And waits...

 

 

And waits...

 

Over the next several days, the offers start to trickle in. However, none of them are in Max’s desired price range. He has to reduce his ask in order to get more traffic. Over several weeks, he had a number of buyers ask to come by his home to check out his car.

 

Max doesn’t feel comfortable with this since he has a young family, so he has to leave the neighborhood each time. Finally, he finds someone willing to buy the car. It’s much less than he hoped to get but he’s so tired by this point he accepts the offer.

 

 

Three weeks later, he hears a knock on his door and gets served. It turns out his buyer is suing him due to a malfunction with the car’s engine he knew nothing about.

 

 

He groans and thinks “There has to be another way to sell my car…”.

 

 

Get extra cash for nachos, not lawsuits
