How We Determine Trade Values

How Do We Determine your Car's Value?

Not only do we sell used cars, but we will also buy yours, regardless of its age, mileage, or condition. Setting up an appointment isn't necessary, and we'll appraise your car for free in as little as 45 minutes. We back each appraisal with a written offer that we will honor even if you don't buy a car from us.

Our car appraisers put your car through a detailed process, ensuring you get a fair and honest offer. The process in determining your offer includes a physical inspection of your car. Since every car is different, our appraisers focus on:

  • The year, mileage, make, and model of your car
  • Interior and exterior conditions
  • Aftermarket modifications
  • Structural damages
  • A test drive for mechanical issues
  • Your car's history report for possible flood or frame damage and any accidents

Using multiple sources of data, appraisers also check general factors that affect any car of similar make and model. Your car is compared against current and accurate market conditions, such as national sales trends and auction data.

Once our appraisers analyze the information, we'll give you a free written offer that will be good for seven days.
