@LuckyLopez7773 жыл бұрын
Well Texas is the best state to do buy here pay here my advice would be by at least 10 cars and two of those every month try to sell buy here pay here to start building your portfolio something that you could buy for thousand and $1500 if you get $1000 down to at least get your mostly out of the vehicle it’ll be hard in the beginning but once you start getting those $300 a month payments or $150 every two weeks that snowball will grow by the time you’re 35 you’ll have $2 million in profoilo and you’ll be making about $75k-100k in monthly payments. Depending at where you’re at in Texas you actually have the ability to own the property you’re on and if you’re on your property you can get special loans that will give you a little bit of capital to start your buy here pay here as well

New subscriber here! Still trying to learn everything I can! I know the definite goal is to get a used car dealer license/plate to allow the buyers a test drive. but for beginners like myself with no dealer plate what do you do with test drives? Let them drive with no reg or insurance? What if something happens. I’m basically gambling my investment letting strangers drive my inventory before they buy it! I could make them sign a liability waiver, but I also fear that can scare potential buyers away! I just don’t know the best approach is! TIA!!

I’m more of a price person than a Miles person the car could’ve 200,000 miles but if I can get a cheap enough and still sell it and make a decent profit I’ll go for it but usually if I tell people if they’re starting out flipping cars try to stay under like 130,000 miles just to kind of limit your major repairs and you have an easier time selling them

You could make a car mechanically sound but if it's ugly people will not buy it. Truth! I had a 02 Toyota Tacoma. Perfect running but with a busted window on the driver's side of the extended cab. So there was a plastic taped to it and it looked pretty ragged. Took out to a used car lot. I told the guy I'm willing to let it go for a thousand dollars. He said nope. Later decided not to sell it. Met an old guy in a parking lot of a store. He said man if you could fix that up a little could probably get 10000 for that. This was mid covid when the microprocessor shortage was driving used car through the roof.

@LuckyLopez7773 жыл бұрын
To get started it’s not a bad thing so you can save overhead but in the long run I would definitely get an office most states don’t allowed anymore because of all the fraud that’s been going on with the people that just kind of user licenses like that. I’m sure their Are some states that still allow that also some states allow a brokers license where you don’t need a lot you just need a small office and you run your car through dealerships in the auction

Doing consignment is a good low-cost way to get started you just have to make sure that the dealership is not having any financial problems because at any time the flooring company could take those cars and you have to go to court to get ownership back. But I would definitely test the waters see if you like it and then open up a small dealership

Stupidity is at an all-time high at the auction dealers are complaining about not selling cars while they’re overpaying for car still there is a large back log of repos. Most auctions are holding him and only releasing a few at the time in order not to flood the market that will crash the prices depending on what state you’re in the prices should correct around February which dealers are probably hype it up again for tax season and still continue to overpaying
