Hello I would like to give you 4 fast used car tips to help you get the best deal you can from your next used car purchase.

Tip #1 f your buying a late model used car you may want to check the car financing rates,

For example the interest rate on the used model you are looking at might have you paying the same amount of money over the term of the loan as if you went and bought the same model new, That is if there are current incentives on that model such as 0% car financing are in place.

So it is very wise if you are buying a late model used car to check current new car financing on that model you might end up with the same payment and get a better warranty then the used car warranties.

Tip # 2 Never assume that a non commission salesman is under no pressure to sell a used car, Most of them are still under a bonus program and their job is still based on performance so its safe to assume that they have their own interests in mind.

Tip # 3 When a used car dealer buys a car lets say from an auction or trade in they most likely use a wholesale blue book, for example they will use the Nada black book this is not the same book your local bank or credit union use's in determining your cars value, This is important because so many dealers say they are selling you the car at book but which one? If you can you should keep your price marker using the trade in value from the Nada blue book which you can get a value from your local bank i dont suggest kelly blue book because it generally runs a bit high. You have to remember that blue books in general get their information from sent in reports from dealers and dealer only car auctions (you think they may have a vested interest in sending in some high reports you bet keeps value high).

Tip # 4 If dealing with a good sized dealership and the salesman are on commission, You may want to buy near the end of the month they may get a bonus for units sold that month so they may be willing to give up a portion of their own profit on that specific deal to get the monthly bonus, This go's for the used car manager as well.

There are many other tips and used car information but i will save some for later. I hope i have helped with a little better understanding of the inside working of the used car business.

Thank you for reading and have a great day!
