Selling my car before we leave

Post new topic

Does anyone have any suggestions about how/where to sell our vehicle (2010, Toyota Highlander) before we leave? Are there private dealers who sell it for a percentage, etc?

Thx,
Erin

use classificadosonline.com and sell it privately.

I agree. In the meantime put a Se Vende sign with a phone  number on the side and back windows. Ask your neighbors. Everybody has a cousin that's looking for something. Take cash ONLY! If I still lived there I wouldn't trust ANYBODY to leave it with to sell it for me.

If you sell it yourself make sure you go with the new owner to a collecturia and get the title transferred.

You could try selling the car to a second hand car company. They may not offer you the best price but at least they have the cash to do the deal.

Not even me, Gregg? Just give me the car, the keys and the title - I'll take care of it. :D

Yes you will have to go with the new-owner-to-be to have the registration transferred. Yes only take cash. Note: if you've accumulated any traffic fines and not payed them they will catch you when the car is sold so if you have any you might as well pay them. And yes ask around if anyone needs a car because people often do.

Clasificadosonline.com is definitely the way to go. We had our car sold in less than 24 hours.

Thanks for the help!
