Sell a car
What not to do
There are two ways to get rid of a car. The easiest is to charge the car dealership with a sale. If, hurry up - use the service of urgent repurchase. Save time, but not money - businessmen do not work for free. When it’s off, get down to business yourself - there’s more chance of getting a real price.
Take some advice. Do not sell the car to loved ones - you can ruin the relationship. Even a small breakdown, which was not even suspected, but which suddenly “crawled out”, will cause resentment and suspicion: I slipped my own …
Should I go to the car market myself? Not the fact that someone eager to buy your car will appear on the very first day, but to spend the whole vacation on the site is an activity for phlegmatic people. We recommend using the Internet.
Only about the merits
An ad is best placed on popular automotive internet portals. But first, visit the same sites to find out how much they ask for devices similar to yours. It is wise to set a price just below the maximum.
When filling out the standard form on the site, be sure to add comments that would highlight your proposal among similar ones. Do not skimp on the description of advantages! Description of the technical condition of the "sat-and-drove" is a weak argument.
If there are few pluses, press on the fate of the villain who parted you with a wonderful car, say, in connection with an urgent departure to Brazil to take into account the number of wild monkeys. Mention the shortcomings in passing - during the inspection, the buyer will find them. In extreme cases, write that for his age, the car is good at all 97%!
Equip your ad with photos. Take your car clean, in daylight, from different angles. Odometer reading - close up. Only in this form, advertising will cause interest.
In anticipation of the reaction, collect the service book, all instructions, a spare set of ignition keys in a folder. The rule of good taste is to put packaged seasonal tires in the trunk: everyone is pleased to deal with a tidy host.

Resellers are asked not to worry
And contact with a potential buyer has been established - ahead of the bride. As a rule, he appoints their time; the choice of place is always up to the seller.
Do not roll the client "all the money." The story of the glorious past of the car at the time of the execution of the controlled drift will not please anyone. Drive slowly, demonstrating the performance of on-board systems.
To the request to give a taxi, answer with a categorical refusal: how skillfully a possible owner drives a car - a big question. And our police have not yet caught all the hijackers.
May follow the requirement to conduct in-depth diagnostics of the car in a car service. Do not refuse - the one who pays the one also orders the music. Even if the result of the consumer survey does not please you, the owner will benefit: knowledge of the causes of dissatisfaction will come in handy.
Do not mess with the cunning tribal dealers. To distinguish this annoying audience from ordinary buyers is easy. If at the stage of telephone conversations the subscriber is trying to bring down the price by 30–40%, this is probably a “buy-out”. Another alarming signal is the interlocutor’s attempt to complete a deal by proxy. As soon as you hear that the car is supposedly buying for a non-resident brother-in-law, send Hitara away.
If after three to four weeks it is not possible to sell the car, reduce the price by 3-5%. Do not regret it if the business, as it is now, is moving towards the new year: from the second half of December to the end of January, cars are sold heavily. The coming year will come - and he will immediately grow old, and therefore reduce the cost of goods.
Sell a car
The seller provides the buyer with all possible information about the car. Get to know her - make sure that the product is worth the money. The seller provides the buyer with all possible information about the car. Get to know her - make sure that the product is worth the money.
From agreement to agreement
The transaction is drawn up by a sales contract in a commissioned car shop. The document can also be written in simple writing - the law allows this, but traffic cops are wary of such papers.
If you have agreed to resort to the traditional option, the presence of the buyer is not even necessary when concluding the contract - for the solicitor it’s enough to see a copy of the acquirer's passport (it’s safer for you to take a deposit, usually 3-5 thousand rubles).
Do not forget to keep a copy of the contract: you will need it for the tax office (in detail - below).
Exchange TCP for money is the calmest thing at the bank, at the same time check the authenticity of banknotes. Put the proceeds from the sale immediately into a bank account - carrying hundreds of thousands of cash in cash is risky.
And remember that there is a buyer for every thing. Especially for a reasonable price.
Correct tax
When you sell a car owned by you on the right of ownership, you receive income that is taxed. When filing a tax return, you can get a property deduction. It is mentioned in article 220 of the Tax Code: if the car was in your property for three years or more before the sale (you will need to show proof of this), the property deduction will be equal to its sale value. If less than three years, the size of the property deduction will not exceed 250, 000 rubles.
