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.
