How It Works
The process is simple:
- Place an order for our Comprehensive Car Inspection.
- We run a free Title Search and History Search on the vehicle.
- We schedule an appointment with the Seller or you can schedule it if you prefer.
- Inspection is done at the vehicle's location by skilled technicians.
- Based on our inspection, we determine the car's book value.
- The inspector does an in-person or phone consultation to discuss the condition of the vehcile and any problems that were found.
- A report is given to you at the conclusion of the inspection or it can be faxed or emailed to you.
Why Buy A Used Car
- Price. Purchasing a pre-owned vehicle is a fantastic way to get a reliable car at a lower price, representing a great value.
- Get a Better Car. The lower cost of used cars can make it possible for a buyer to upgrade to a nicer model or better car.
- Car Quality. Cars are made better these days so used cars can last a long time if they are properly maintained.
- Depreciation. New cars depreciate a tremendous amount. In the first year, new cars can depreciate between 20 and 40 percent. Depreciation is lower during the second year but still relatively high.
- Insurance Rates. Insurance premiums on used vehicles are typically lower than the equivalent new car.
Multiple Inspection Discount
We hope that you find the perfect car on the first try but sometimes it takes a little more effort. To help contain the costs, we offer a multiple inspection discount. Within 30 days of your initial inspection, the second inspection will be discounted by $20 and a $30 discount will be applied to all subsequent inspections.
