First, let’s go through an overview of the process of how to trade-in your car:
Start figuring out the price range that you can expect by checking out a few sources for estimates. Kelley Blue Book Value and Edmunds True Market Value are great options. Your vehicle’s value will be based on a number of factors, including model and year, along with maintenance history and condition. Keep in mind that your value will also depend on your location.
It’s time for your in-person appraisal, so be sure to put your best foot forward. Be honest as possible throughout the process. It’s hard to fool an appraiser – especially with modern Vehicle History Reports! While some vehicles may not qualify for the trade-in process, most well-maintained cars are able to be resold with ease.
If your appraised value isn’t what you’d like, you might be able to negotiate with the research gathered from earlier. However, if you have an outstanding loan or other dings to your credit history, the process might be harder. Since Cactus Jack's Auto does in-house financing, you have more flexible options than you might think. Be sure to discuss with us until you are completely comfortable, and then sign to complete the process.
