Buying and selling a car is a rather complicated process. In order to do everything right and not be left without and without a car, you need to understand all the intricacies of this procedure. The greatest number of difficulties lies in wait for a person when buying a car. However, when selling a vehicle, you too can make some unforgivable mistakes.
When selling a car, problems often arise when communicating with potential buyers. The huge number of people who work in this area seriously poison the life of the car salesman. They try to bring down the price and buy your car at the lowest price in order to.
In addition, serious problems arise if, after registering a car with the traffic police, in your name within a specified time frame. Until the buyer registers the car in his own name, the old owner will receive all fines and can also be considered the culprit in many dangerous situations associated with his old car.
Selling a car just seems like a daunting process. In fact, if you know about all the intricacies of the process, of which there are not so many, the transaction will be successful, and all deceptive mechanisms will be revealed during the first conversation. Most often, the buyer is a person like you who is very worried and afraid of becoming a victim of scammers. After all, the traffic police work scheme at the moment is built in such a way that the buyer risks much more than the seller. He can purchase a vehicle, registration of which will be refused, and the buyer himself can be accused of stealing this vehicle. You will have to prove for your own money that "you are not a camel."
In order to understand how to sell a car and not make stupid mistakes, you need to.
Selling strategy
The best option is to sell the car to a friend or friend. But this situation is rarely possible. Therefore, you need to focus on third-party resources. Place your ads on message boards and special car portals.
It is necessary to use the services of intermediaries in this area with great care. If you are not a professional auto lawyer, then it is better to completely abandon such work schemes. Even deciding to use such services, be sure to carefully read the reputation of the company and reviews about it on the Internet. Also, don't forget that reviews can be customized.
Car check and diagnostics
Before drawing conclusions about the cost of a car, you need a complete check of the car and its diagnostics. The check consists in an objective assessment of the condition of the machine. Degree of wear of parts, appearance, obsolescence and other parameters. You can carry out this procedure yourself, or you can trust an expert. But an expert usually asks for a lot of money for such services, so it is better to conduct an assessment yourself, focusing on the price level in the market. True, if you do not understand cars, then the help of a specialist will be required. But in this case, you need to look for either a good friend or a trusted appraisal firm.
In addition, at the stage of verification, you need to remove all unnecessary personal belongings from the car and prepare everything for sale. Wash, vacuum, inspect all units, etc. Repair if necessary.
Also needed. The buyer will check them against the documents. Documents should also be prepared. You will need a TCP, your passport and a draft sales contract. If there is a contract under which you yourself once purchased the car, show it too.
Equipment
A complete set is everything that you give along with the car. With the car, you can give away a tool kit or jack, sound system or car first aid kit. All this will have an impact on the transaction value and attractiveness for the buyer.
However, this is usually the point. Different models have different configurations. For example, the Niva car from Avtovaz has several configurations today. All of them differ in the level of comfort and a set of options. Somewhere there is an air conditioner, but somewhere there is nothing at all. Therefore, the cost of the car is different.
You definitely need to describe all the options in your ad. This affects the cost and perception of the ad.
Submitting an ad
This is probably the most important and at the same time difficult moment. It is necessary and placed on all possible message boards. Be sure to use the resources of network clubs. For example, when selling a Suzuki Jimny, the first thing to do is post an ad on the club forum. Local residents know many of the cars and will confirm that the ad is fair. True, the price here can "sink" strongly under the commentaries of professionals.
Announcement, options and intricacies of the deal. A person must see everything at once.
Meeting with the buyer
After submitting your ad, potential buyers will contact you. They will all want to arrange a car viewing. Apart from such buyers, you are guaranteed about. Be attentive and it is better to refuse to meet anyone who arouses the slightest suspicion. Don't tell me where your car is.
A person who is usually quite easy to recognize. He shows a keen interest and communicates sincerely. Not satisfied with the most thorough examination and does not ask many unnecessary questions. Rarely aggressive and does not accuse you of lack of competence.
There are many schemes of deception, so it is very difficult to predict exactly how you can be deceived. Remember not to allow a potential buyer to make a copy of your passport and accompanying documents. Let me just read and check their validity using the Internet. In addition, if the future owner asks to steer, then it is better to ride the way with you as a passenger. Or, you can give it a ride with you in an enclosed area.
Avoid unnecessary discussions about the price level of the car and the adequacy of the cost. Only a small bargaining is appropriate. Of course, it is obvious that the starting price must be adequate. It is better not to allow car checks in special services.
Purchase
When transferring a car, in addition to the standard sales contract, it is rational. The buyer writes that he accepted the vehicle and is satisfied with everything, and the seller writes that he accepted the funds in full and is also happy with everything. Do not forget to include in the sales contract that the buyer undertakes to put the car on record in the manner prescribed by law and within a specific time frame. It is very useful to use the services of a notary who will certify the transaction.
After that, you, as a seller, just have to check that the owner made an entry in his name in the TCP and registered.
