Why You Should Auction Your Vehicle vs. Selling Privately

Privately selling your car is a lot of work – after you find out how much your car is worth, you have to decide how much you want to sell it for, find an interested buyer, work with their bank, and transfer the title. While privately selling a vehicle can sometimes make it seem like the seller is in more control, they still might not get the most money for the sale and have to spend hours making sure the transfer and sale runs smoothly.

For a smooth, quick way to sell your vehicle and still get your money’s worth, taking it to auction could be your best option. The auction process is fast, yet thorough, and can still give you the value that you expect when selling a vehicle. How? At Dakil, it’s because we have a streamlined process that sets your car auction up for success.

We Do the Marketing Work

At Dakil, we market all of our auctions to the most qualified and interested people in the country. We do this using a thorough, fine-tuned marketing plan using leads and connections we have cultivated for years.

Our blog, “How Dakil Markets Your Auction Products to Potential Buyers,” explains how we use print, digital, and direct marketing to get your auto auction noticed.

We Handle the Paperwork So You Don’t Have To

The most time-consuming and frustrating part of selling a car is dealing with the paperwork and transfers after you’ve found someone willing to buy. Waiting in line at the tag agency can take ages, as well as waiting for the bank to approve an auto loan. Sometimes, handling the paperwork can take longer than finding a buyer and selling the car itself.

When you auction your car, the auction house takes care of handling this paperwork for you, so you can get paid without any additional hassle. This way, after the auction is over, you don’t have to complete any more tasks to finalize your sale.

We Bring in the Most Qualified Bidders

Due to our years of auto auction experience and our fine-tuned marketing process, we can ensure that the most qualified bidders know about and attend your auction. We can ensure that your vehicle is bought not only by the highest bidder, but also by a bidder who is seeking out your specific car.

Selling your car at auction can be a faster, more painless process than selling privately. If you’ve never sold a car at auction before, our blog “Selling Your Car for the First Time at Auction” can provide step-by-step instructions on prepping your car for the auction, and let you know what to expect.
