Tip 1 - Pick your time.
If you can possibly help it, don't sell your car after Christmas, when
no one has any money.
Also, showing off your car on a weeknight can be strategically useful,
because
the buyer may not have time to view other vehicles. This works
particularly well
if you take the time to detail it as I describe. If you don't he will
just move
on, so I need to emphasise that car selling tips work best in
conjunction with
each other.
Tip 2 - First Impressions are everything
Just like you are going on a date - first impressions are everything.
Get all the rubbish and junk out of it. Deodorize it. Wash it, clean
it.
Tip 3 - As the good boy scout says. Be prepared.
Get your paperwork in order. Find the spare keys etc. It can easily
happen that
the buyer will change his mind while you are fluffing around, or get a
phone
call about another car. Get all the paperwork to hand and get it done
as soon as
you can after closing the sale. This is very important. You still need
to stay
calm and in control and the best way to help you do this is to get
organised
before hand.
