How to Trade in Your Car
The decision to get a new car can be exciting, but you may also be wondering what you should do with your existing vehicle. Here at LaFontaine Subaru, we can help you trade in your vehicle and use the value to get funds for your next ride.
In this article, we'll show drivers in West Bloomfield, Novi, and Farmington, MI, how you can trade in your car. We'll cover the things you need to bring with your trade-in and how to get the value you deserve.
What You Need for a Trade-In
When you decide to trade in your vehicle, you want to make sure you get a fair value. There are a few steps you need to follow to ensure this. To start, you should do some research to see what your vehicle is potentially worth. You should also have all materials you need in order. Paperwork is especially important in this process. You can move the financial process along faster if you are prepared with the things you need for your trade-in. These materials include:- Proof of ownership
- State registration
- Insurance card
- Outstanding loan information
- Service records
How to Value Your Trade-In
Once you get your paperwork in order, you want to make sure you know the value of the vehicle you are trading in. Doing some research can help you determine a fair value for your model. You can use the Value Your Trade tool on our website to get a better sense of the value of your vehicle. In addition to this, you can get a second opinion with other vehicle-value tools to compare values and have full knowledge of what your vehicle is worth. You also want to look at a CARFAX® Vehicle History Report™ if you bought the car used. This will allow you to confirm any repairs made to the vehicle or if there is an open recall notice. You can also contact our finance team and speak to an expert if you have more questions about the Value Your Trade tool and get more expertise on what you are looking for. You should also remember that you can trade-in a vehicle that you still owe money on. You can consolidate what you owe on the vehicle you are selling with the price of a new vehicle.Trade in Your Car With Us
