How to Sell a Car Fast
- 1). Find the Blue Book value of the car and price it accordingly. To sell a car fast, you'll need to price it at or under the car's fair market value for your area. See the link the Resources below to find the car's Blue Book value to price it right.
- 2). List the car for sale on free classified websites. Many car buyers begin their search for a new or used car online. Search for classified websites that cater to your area and list the car on as many of them as possible. Be sure to include the year, make and model of the car and a few photographs to attract buyers.
- 3). Place a "For Sale" sign on your car and drive it around town. If others see you driving, you're sending the message that the car is in good working condition. Be sure to include your phone number and the car's sale price to encourage inquiries from buyers.
- 4). Make flyers to advertise your car and place them in local grocery and convenience stores. A colorful flyer that includes a photograph of the car, the year, make, model, a contact phone number and the car's sale price will attract the attention of buyers.
- 5). Be available to show the car and allow others to test drive it in the evenings and on weekends to sell a car fast. Buyers will want to see the car after work or school, and on their days off when it's convenient for them. If you're unavailable during these times, it could delay the sale. Make sure there is always someone available to answer questions from buyers and show the car when you're not going to be home.
