A few of the important car documents that you need before selling an include insurance policy, registration certificate (RC), no objection certificate from the bank (if the car was bought on loans), and pollution control certificates.

An extra little tip for you after selling the car is to take care of transferring the ownership to the buyer as soon as possible.

Estimate of Car

– It is incredibly important before you jump into the market with your vehicle. As a buyer, if you have no experience of how much value cars hold then this will be a good learning step. All you need to do is contact different buyers regarding your vehicle. Get to know what they are willing to pay. If you do not want to meet or interact with buyers in person then guess what? Internet will be your friend. One Google search and you will get a hundred results regarding the value or estimate of your car.

There are a few factors that will contribute to the actual value of your car. These factors include the model of the car, fuel type, kilometers driven on the car, history, manual or automatic, and etc. All these were technical factors but sometimes very non-technical factors play a role in price too such as the color of the car.

Servicing

– Do you know what helps in keeping your car as per its value? It’s regular servicing. When you get in contact with the buyer, they will inquire you about every stuff regarding the car. It is because they are paying and want the best they could get. Remember that most buyers have surveyed the market. So, your car could have a lot of competition. That is why it is important to keep your car up to date. One of the smallest defects could send away a good buyer. The buyers sometimes are happy to pay extra if they see that car has been serviced regularly.

The most important type of servicing will include oil of the car, lubricants, tires, and aligning.

Working on Exterior of Car

– It is said, the first impression is the last. There is no doubt about this phrase. You will only look at a thing twice only if you like it in the first place. Consider a daily life example, would you enter a store that has good clothes but extremely poor lighting? The answer is 90% chance is you will not because when you can not see clothes how will you decide to enter the store. The same rule goes for cars. If a potential buyer comes to your place to take a look at your car, they will only proceed further only after looking at the exterior. Your car could be in 10/10 condition engine, lubricant, tire, and etc wise but will these things create an impression on the buyer if there is a big dent on the bumper? Well, the chances become very less.

So, the point is to keep the exterior of your car presentable and excellent. The car should be polished, dent and scratch-free, clean and neat. Only this way buyer will move on to the next step of inquiring about the car.

Hope these points helped and your small question that every seller has “Is my car worth it?” is also answered.
