The Do's and Don'ts of the Trade-In Process
Online car trading is the way of the future.

At CARite, we go above and beyond to create a streamlined and pleasant experience for all our clients, whether online or in person at one of our nationwide delivery centers. Car trade ins don’t need to be stressful - our zero haggling required process gives you peace of mind and easy trading. For your convenience, our team has prepared an easy to use guide to help you along the way. Here are our recommendations on what you need to know about trading in your car - what you should do, and what you should not.
The Do’s: What You Should Be Doing During Your Trade In
When it comes to making decisions over your assets, there are a number of factors to consider and some that may not even seem to matter until it is too late. We want you to be prepared and that is why we recommend that you do the following when you are looking at trading in your car:
Have your vehicle's value appraised - know the worth of what you have
Shop around for a number of options that would be suitable for you and will match your trade in goals
Make sure that all your vehicle’s documentation (including service records) is up to date and readily compiled - it will save you tie and stress during the trade in process
Be realistic and clear about what you can achieve with your trade in and what you are looking for in a new vehicle
Look into and understand how the depreciation on your vehicle works so that you are properly informed and mentally prepared for what to expect
The Don’ts: Things You Should NOT Be Doing
Here are some common mistakes we see:
Failure to negotiate - always talk to your consultant about the deal you are about to strike and how it can be adapted to suit you better
Wasting money on having your car fully detailed - clean is good, detailing may cost you money you can’t make back
Overestimating the car’s value or condition - have manageable expectations going in
