If you’re interested in doing so, there are a number of steps you’ll want to take to ensure you go home happy with a brand-new ride.
For Highland, Hartford, and Milford, MI, drivers, we’ve got you covered with all the steps you need to take in this vehicle trade-in checklist.
Make sure to reach out to our team here at Feldman Chevrolet of Highland with any questions you may have.
Set a Budget
The first thing you’ll want to do when you’re looking to make a trade on a new vehicle is setting a budget. This will allow you to set some search parameters, taking a look at models that fit your needs from a monetary perspective.
Identify a New Vehicle
With your budget in place, you’ll be ready to begin browsing for a new ride. Start exploring our available inventory online, taking a look at the cars, trucks, and SUVs we have in stock. Then, come in for a test drive and confirm your decision.
Prepare Your Car for Trade-in
Once you’ve found a car that you want to take home, you’ll want to start prepping your current car for trade-in. Doing simple things such as cleaning and detailing as well as repairing body issues can help raise the value of your vehicle, making sure it presents in good condition.
Evaluate Vehicle Worth
From there, you’ll be ready to learn more about the value of your vehicle. That way, you can learn more about the type of return you can expect and the type of money you’ll have to put toward your new ride.
Fortunately, we make it easy to receive an estimate of your vehicle’s trade-in value, with our online Edmunds Trade-In tool.
Bring Vehicle in for Trade-in
When you’re ready to move forward with your trade-in, you’ll want to bring your vehicle into our dealership. Here, we’ll inspect the vehicle and conduct some research, learning more about its condition and worth.
Having gathered this info, we’ll then be able to present you with an offer for the vehicle.
Offer Acceptance and Documents
If you want to accept our offer at any point, there will just be a few minor details left. First, we’ll need to take a look at your license as well as the title and registration for the vehicle. This will allow us to confirm your ownership of the vehicle.
Then, you’ll just have to agree to a few deal points, make a few signatures, and you’ll be ready to head home in your new ride!
