Determining Your Used Car Value

There are a variety of factors that can play into the accurate value of your used car. Some of the most common ones are:

• Make
• Model
• Year
• Mileage
• Vehicle condition

This is all information that you’ll provide when you use our Value Your Trade tool to get a Kelley Blue Book® estimate of your used car’s value.

However, it’s important to have your vehicle expertly appraised because other factors can come into play to give you the most accurate value. These factors include number of previous owners, tire condition, service history, and modifications.

Much of this information can be gained from your vehicle history report.

How to Improve Your Trade-in Value

If you have a vehicle that you intend to sell or trade in the future, there are several things that you can do now that may help to increase its value when the time comes, like:

• Use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts
• Limit permanent customizations
• Watch your mileage
• Schedule regular maintenance

Much of maintaining your used car’s value comes down to ensuring that you keep your vehicle built as close to factory specifications as possible. That means using OEM parts, avoiding permanent customizations, and using paints that match factory standard when repairing scratches, dents, and dings.

You’ll also want to ensure that you schedule your vehicle for regular, routine maintenance when it’s due.

Should I Sell or Trade My Car in Virginia Beach, VA?
