Used Cars for Sale

A used car is often cheaper than purchasing a new car since most new cars lose up to 35% of their value after three years. Buying a used car from a dealer is a safer option than purchasing from a private owner as it may come with an extended warranty. If you don’t purchase an extended warranty, make sure you research the car’s reliability and ownership costs. When buying a used car, you may want to get a pre-purchase inspection and a vehicle history report. You may want to consider buying a CPO car, or “Certified Pre-Owned” that is fully inspected and backed by a manufacturer’s warranty. Most car shoppers end up with a monthly car payment by financing the car with a loan from a bank or credit union, although some buyers opt for an "all cash" option. Either way, make sure you can afford the car you buy.
