You are ready to sell your current vehicle and move on to something newer. This is exciting, but be aware that there is more involved than putting it out at the end of your driveway or posting it on a website. In order to get the most money for your vehicle, take these tips from your Toyota dealers near Philadelphia on how to prepare your vehicle for sale.
Clean it Up Well
The cleaner the car, the more attractive it is to a buyer. Invest in a good detailer that will scrub it inside and out. Empty out the glove compartment, console, trunk and other available storage spaces. Without the clutter and your personal effects, it will interest the buyer more.
Fix All Damage
You may have learned to live with the ding in your door but the next person might not. Anything that can be fixed easily like lights should be done. Body damage may be expensive to get fixed, but it may be what stops the car from being sold. Make sure you have a record of any damages so there is no question that there was more than there was, such as frame damage.
Take a Good Picture
When listing your car online, make sure you have a decent picture. Point out the good and the bad. You don’t want there to be any surprises when the buyer looks at it in person. When cars are listed, potential customers will often avoid ones with no picture or ones that are unclear, so get the best shots you can.
