Searching for a Vehicle for Sale by Owner in Goodyear, AZ

Are you in the market for used cars for sale by owner around Goodyear, AZ? Purchasing from individuals is a beneficial way to save potentially thousands of dollars while finding a vehicle that fits your needs. This process also provides direct insight into important information regarding the vehicle, and potentially getting a better price. In this guide, we will cover how to search for used cars for sale by owner in your area and best practices for purchasing.

Why Would You Buy from Individuals Instead of Dealerships?

When buying a car, one of the first decisions is if you're going to buy from an individual or through a dealership. Here are a few reasons buying used cars for sale by owners work better for you:

  • Lower Prices: Dealerships typically charge extra money to make money on sales because they have higher overhead costs, such as payroll and facility upkeep. Cars for sale by owners are usually selling their car for market (or less), providing a better opportunity for buyers to purchase the car at a better deal.
  • No Dealer Fees: Dealerships frequently charge dealer fees which can add hundreds or even thousands of dollars to the overall cost of purchase. Avoid the dealer fees when you purchase private or private used cars for sale by owner.
  • Honest History: Individuals selling cars usually have a more honest idea of the vehicle's history. They can provide personal knowledge of how they maintained the vehicle, and repairs it’s had performed. For buyers, this can improve their confidence. If saving money and having more transparency interests you, buying used cars for sale by owner is the way to go.

 

Check the Vehicle History Report Before You Buy

This is one of the most critical steps to take when buying from a private seller, is finding out the car's history. A vehicle history report is critical in finding the simple facts such as:

  • Accident history
  • Number of owners
  • Service and maintenance records
  • Mileage discrepancies
  • Outstanding recalls

For buyers in Goodyear, AZ - KarKiosk's KarReport is a great source to find out this information. The KarReport allows you to view detailed information on the car you are interested in so that there will not be any surprises down the road. It is worth every penny of the small investment for peace of mind.

Consider a Pre-Purchase Inspection (PPI)

A pre-purchase inspection (PPI) is very important when buying private cars for sale. This helps you ensure that the car is mechanically safe and sound and worth the asking price. You have two ways to do a PPI:

  • Technician Inspection: Hire a licensed and trusted local mechanic or auto technician to inspect the car on the spot. Your mechanic will inspect key components (engine, brakes, tires, and suspension, etc.) and/or check for any signs that the car sustained some impact or damage.
  • AI Inspection: For residents of Goodyear, modern technology allows it to be MUCH easier! KarKiosk offers AI-driven inspections that will assess the vehicle's condition quickly and thoroughly without needing to schedule an in-person appointment, and it will truly save you time and take the guesswork out of the process.

Regardless of whether you select a technician or an AI inspection, a pre-purchase inspection ensures that you make an informed purchase.

Be Safe Buying Cars from a Private Seller

Buying a car from a private seller can be a simple experience if you take proper precautions. Here are some tips to make your experience safer:

  • Meet in a Public Place: Always meet the seller at a public place that is well-lit and safe. Consider a coffee shop parking lot or a police department's "safe exchange zone."
  • Bring Someone With You: Having someone accompany you when you meet the seller is a way to protect your safety.
  • Verify the Seller 100%: Always ask the seller for ID and vehicle ownership papers to help ensure that you are not now involved in a stolen vehicle transaction.
  • Don't Bring Cash: Consider using a cashier's check or electronic transfer. Try to avoid physically carrying large amounts of cash.

These tips for safety can help make buying a car from a private seller fast and safe.
