What Happens When You Sell A Car To A Dealership?

Dealerships source their pre-owned inventory from a variety of sources, including trade-ins and auctions. Buying vehicles directly from customers benefits everyone. Davis Chevrolet has refined their process down to just a few steps.

  • Bring your vehicle to Davis Chevrolet for an appraisal
  • Accept the offer
  • Walk away

If you decide to take the money we offer for your vehicle, it is yours to keep. You’re not obligated to buy from us in the future, though you are more than welcome to.

We’ll Do The Paperwork

Selling a vehicle on your own requires a fair amount of paperwork, like bills of sale and title transfers. A dealership is well-versed in these kinds of things. When you sell your automobile to our team, we’ll handle all the paperwork on-site and make sure it’s filed correctly. You won’t have to do much of anything except wait for the dealership’s cheque to be handed to you.
