Depending on the age of your vehicle, making it look brand new for resale may be tough, but applying a few handy tips can certainly give it much more curb appeal.
Perhaps you are hoping to buy yourself a new SUV or Dodge Ram pickup, but first you must sell your existing vehicle in order to purchase the car of your dreams.
Consider these tips below:
- A thorough cleaning and detailing job is necessary. No one wants to buy a car that looks as though it has just been mudding (even if you are selling a Jeep). Spend some time giving your old clunker a facelift and you’ll be rewarded by getting a higher asking price.
- Present buyer with maintenance and service records. Hopefully you have done a great job at keeping up with receipts and records for all the work you’ve had done on the car. This will help a buyer know that the vehicle they are purchasing has been well taken care of.
- Get a mechanical inspection. This is necessary to know that you are selling someone a car that is working properly and not a lemon. If there’s something wrong with the car, the right thing to do is disclose this information to the potential buyer. Honest is always the best policy!
