You might be planning to move out, you might be in need of quick cash, or you might be having a newborn and want a bigger vehicle…
No matter what is the reason behind it, there are some clear paths you can take if you want to sell any car in UAE…
Overall, selling your car by yourself is never an easy thing to manage, especially if you needed to get it done fast. And needless to say, if you’re inexperienced, you’re going to settle for less than what your car is really worth.
But before you get started, you have to know the real value of your car in the market today. That’s because you never know how the market changes and, of course, because the value of any car dwindles over time. Although some cars get it worse than others…
Not fair. But that’s just how to cookie crumbles.
You can know the value of your car by asking car traders, experienced family members, and through many websites on the internet that can give you a really good estimate of how much your car is currently worth in the market.
Now that you know, here are some of the most popular and best ways to sell any car in Dubai…
Sell it Yourself Using What You Have On-Hand
A really popular way to sell a car anywhere in the world.
The first thing that comes to anyone’s mind when they decide to sell a car in UAE or anywhere is simply posting pictures of their car on social media along with their number and trying to fish for the right buyer that way…
Surely, a valid way to sell any car in Dubai as well, but you have to know what you are doing.
You have to take really good pictures of the car and post them to show any potential buyer the details of how clean and functional your car is, along with a list of detailed specs of your car like the CCs and options – pretty much, the more detailed the better. That’s because you don’t want to waste your time talking to people who don’t intend to buy your car.
And at the same time, you’ll save yourself the hassle of answering so many questions and making so many phone calls.
Also, you have to keep in mind that if you want to sell your car this way, you are in line for so many test drives that will cost you gas and time.
Using Apps
Such as Dubbizle, which is a really popular marketplace for cars in the UAE, and especially Dubai currently.
But still, that’s pretty much the same as posting it on social media. You’re probably going to face the same questions and test drives.
And it is the more RTA paperwork and hassle for you as well.
Sell it to Family and Friends
Another great way to cash your car is to one of your friends or family who’s had their eye on your car for a while now. That way, you won’t need to go through the hassle of test drives or posting pictures or anything like that.
You’ll just be giving the car to someone trusted for a fair price…
One negative side to this transaction is that your friend might decide to negotiate the price, and if those negotiations go south, this might cost you your friendship. Also, another thing that may cause you problems is that your friend might take advantage of your friendship to take the car at a really low price. So it is better to use a car payment calculator to know the actual value of your car.
Sell it to Dealerships
Undoubtedly the easiest way to sell any car in no time is selling it to a car dealership…
To sum the whole process up, all you have to do is go to them with your car after booking an appointment and you’ll get your car sold in no time, no matter its condition, make, or model.
The price you’ll get is mostly fair, but of course, they’re going to take out the cost of their service. Because most car dealerships also deal with your RTA paperwork and give you the cash on the spot.
Also, it’s a really good way to sell your car fast because you will be saving yourself the time and hassle along with all those test drives you will have to go through if you wanted to sell your car any other way.
So, if you’re thinking “how am I going to sell my car in Dubai?” no you know where to head and how to go about it…
