Value Your Trade


Thanks to modern technology, learning your used car’s value can be a simple process. All it takes is a few easy steps:

  • Complete the online form to get your estimated used car value

  • Have your car’s trade-in value appraised by a professional

  • Complete the sale!

By filling out the form on this page, you'll receive a quick Black Book® estimate of your car's value. The Black Book® value is the one most referenced by dealers when appraising a used vehicle. It pulls from a variety of sources to provide what many dealers feel is one of the most accurate trade-in estimates available.


From there, you'll have a really good idea of what you're working with. Then, it'll be time to have your car appraised by one of our professionals.


We Buy Cars: Let Us Appraise Yours

Once you have your trade-in value estimate, you can use that to estimate many other financial aspects of your car search. However, you'll want to have your vehicle expertly appraised by your dealership's team in order to know exactly what kind of offer you're getting.


We buy used cars often, so we have the appraisal process down pat. Our experts will look over your vehicle and provide you with our exact trade-in value, which will be our offer. Then, we'll get to work with you to seal the deal.

If you're buying a new car to replace your current ride, we can even provide a one-stop shop. We'll apply your used car's value to your auto loan. This can potentially help you to lower your monthly payments or even decrease your loan term.

How We Get Your Used Car’s Value


When determining used car values, appraisers use a variety of factors, including the year, make, model, and mileage of your vehicle. However, they also factor in many other things, like:

  • Vehicle condition
  • Number of previous owners
  • Tire condition
  • Service history

They also look at how well your car matches factory standards. So, if you're looking to protect your car's trade-in value, it's important to ensure you're avoiding too many non-removable personalizations and requesting genuine original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts for any part replacements you need.

You can also maintain your used car's value by taking it to the shop for regular checkups and limiting how many miles you drive.
