No appointment necessary!
1st Step: Bring us your vehicle
- We'll inspect your vehicle from top to bottom.
- We check the interior and exterior to make sure its condition is consistent with the age of your car. Excessive wear and tear may affect your vehicle's value.
- We'll check the mileage/age. Excessive miles may lower your car's value and narrow its resale market. Average mileage is around 12,000 to 15,000 per year.
- We check the paint & body work for paint lines, overspray, body putty, dents, scratches and other signs of previous body repair. Frame damage will also affect your vehicle's value because it shows your vehicle has been in an accident and may not drive properly. At Elhart, we don't resell frame-damaged vehicles.
2nd Steps: The Offer
- We'll give you an honest, fair written offer that's good for 5 days.
- You get the same great offer whether you buy a vehicle from us or not.
3rd Steps: Complete the sale
- If there's a pay-off involved, we'll call your finance company and get information to determine your balance. A bank draft may be issued to you for the difference.
- If the pay-off is more than the value of your vehicle, the difference is called negative equity. We'll calculate the difference between your pay-off and our offer to you. We'll accept a cashier's check or certified check for the amount you owe and then pay off the finance company. In some cases, the negative equity can be included in your financing when you buy an Elhart vehicle.
