Should I sell or trade my vehicle?
Selling a car on your own takes real time and effort: pricing it right, photographing it, advertising it, showing it, negotiating, and handling all the paperwork. That process can eat up entire weekends and evenings after work, and meeting strangers to show your car adds a real safety risk.
An established dealership like Dale Howard takes on all of these steps for you, making the whole process quick, easy, and safe.
Why selling your car yourself can be such a hassle
Listing and selling a car on your own takes more time and effort than most people expect. Here's what you're signing up for:
Pricing it right
Price too high and buyers walk away. Price too low and you leave money on the table.
Scammers to watch for
Private sales attract plenty of people looking to take advantage of sellers.
Meeting strangers
Showing your car to unknown buyers can put your safety at risk.
Endless negotiating
Haggling over price with every interested buyer is stressful and eats up your time.
Mountains of paperwork
Selling a car on your own comes with more paperwork than most people expect.
Professional-grade photos
You'll need sharp, well-lit photos from every angle to make your listing stand out.
Constant calls and emails
Be ready to field questions and schedule showings from every interested buyer.
Test drives with strangers
You'll ride along on test drives and answer questions from buyers on the spot.
Closing the deal
Once you find a buyer, you still have to negotiate, sign paperwork, and transfer the title.
