Sell Your Vehicle
Value Your Trade
If it’s been a while since you traded in or sold your car, or if you’ve never done it before, we can help. At Porsche Westwood, we guide car owners from Westwood, Dedham, and Needham, Massachusetts, through the process in just a few simple steps. Come along on this journey and check off each step to ensure your trade-in or sale will be a success.
Checking the Trade-in or Sale Value
There are several easy ways to get an accurate assessment even though you could estimate the car’s value yourself. Websites like Kelley Blue Book (KBB) are popular options, but our website offers a convenient tool just for you. Called Sell Your Vehicle, our Value Your Trade appraisal tool provides the current estimated market value of your car based on trusted and reputable vehicle valuation sites.
Use this tool to get the most accurate and up-to-date value for your car. You’ll only need a few minutes to fill out the information. Once you have your results, contact us to discuss your trade-in offer or selling your car.
Information You’ll Need
To use our online appraisal tool, you’ll need the make, model, year, vehicle identification number (VIN), or license plate number. You’ll receive an estimated value after filling out the information as accurately as possible. When you stop by, we can discuss your car’s condition, current mileage, and any other features you want to highlight. This ensures that we’ll provide the fairest assessment of your vehicle.
Preparing Your Car for a Trade or Sale
As you prepare your car for trade-in or sale, you may experience mixed emotions, whether you’re ready to move on or feel the loss. No matter what your feelings, you can enhance your car’s value by addressing these key items.
Clear out any trash from the cabin and take out personal items, such as winter gloves and pens from the glove compartment. Peel off any bumper stickers or other decorations adorning your car. Also, vacuum and spot-clean the interior and give the exterior a wash.
Be sure to delete the profiles and phone lists from your car’s electronic devices because they may still hold personal information. This protects your privacy and provides the new owner the opportunity to add their own. Check your owner’s manual for instructions or ask a service technician for assistance.
Should You Service Your Car Before the Trade-in or Sale?
Consider getting routine service and an inspection before you trade your car in or sell it to us. You’ll find out if a bulb needs replacing or your car is due for an oil change, which could boost the compensation you could receive. Covering minor repairs can make a big difference, so schedule an inspection today.
Remember to Bring These Items
Be sure to bring these essential items on the day you trade in or sell your car. To help you remember, make a checklist. Cull together sets of keys, the car title, registration, and proof of insurance. Remember that you’ll need your driver’s license, social security card, and any down payment you plan to make.
