Assess the car

If a mechanic is not available, you can inspect it yourself. Has the vehicle been breaking down on you a lot? In the past has a mechanic told you that you may need an engine or transmission? Use your best judgment you know your vehicle better then anybody.

Decide what you want to do

Decide if it is worth investing the money into your vehicle to fix it. Are the repairs going to cost as much as another used vehicle? These are decisions that you have to mak. By thinking about all of these things, it can save you a lot of money in the long run.

How do I find a Buyer

There are many junk car buyers. You must make sure that the company you are selling to must be licensed. If the company is not licensed then they are not able to turn your title into the state. This means the vehicle stays in your name and you are still responsible for that vehicle. These national junk car buyers use companies to purchase your vehicles. This means that a middle man is getting a cut which in turn means you are losing money! A lot of these companies are not licensed in Texas!!

There are several problems with this model. The biggest problem is that these national junk car buyers don’t care who they sell the leads to, they may even sell them to several companies. We get calls from these companies all the time after talking to several of them I have discovered that they do not want a copy of my licenses or anything. All they are after is a credit card so they can get paid for the leads.

Ultimately they could be contracting to a criminal. These companies just don’t car. All they are after is the money per lead. This could be a very dangerous situation. It is not right to put consumers in this situation over greed.

These national junk car buyers are not licensed in the states to purchase and recycle junk cars. For example in order to have a license in Texas you must be located in Texas and have a principle office here. How are these companies going to notify the state that the junk car or truck is no longer in your possession? This is how you are released from liability. This protects you from assuming liability once your vehicle is sold. These national companies sell these leads to anybody that wants the leads. Some of these people that purchase these leads are not licensed and fix the vehicles up. They resell the vehicle without the title getting transferred. What happens when one of these vehicles runs a red light, tool booth or gets into an accident? You got it, you are held responsible because the vehicle is still in your name.

Another down fall to these companies is that by them selling these leads they are taking money from you. Junk car buyers pay for these leads this means that they have to pay you less for your vehicle. So you are losing the cost of the leads from your selling price. For example:

You are asking $500.00

The lead cost the junk buyer $150.00

This means that your offer would be $350.00

You are losing $150.00 and the National Car Buyer is gaining your money. This is money that you don’t have to lose. You can gain this money by contacting a local junk car buyer and selling your vehicle to them.

I am going to tell you ways to recognize if a company is national or local. The first and best way is to look at their website. If it states that they purchase vehicles in several states. Then they are a national company. Another great way is to look at their phone number. If a junk car buyer has a toll free number then more than likely they are a national junk car buyer. A local company does not need a toll free number because it would not be long distance for you to call them.

Recently I have been getting a lot of reports of two things the first, is people are calling other  salvage car buying companies and getting very high quotes for their vehicle only to find out that the quote is not true.

Here is how the scam works:

You call the company to get a quote; the company could be located anywhere. They then send you an envelope and request you to send them the title to your vehicle. After they receive the title they have a towing company pick up your junk or old vehicle. They then do a condition report on your vehicle and go down on the price that they quoted you.  If you don’t like their new quote then they expect you to have your vehicle towed back along with paying the original tow bill from the first tow.

I can’t believe that this has been going on without any criminal charges being brought against these companies.  This is wrong to do and it is having a horrible impact on the junk industry.  We at Houston Junk Car Buyer will never participate nor be any part of this practice. In our opinion this is fraud!

Another scam is the “Vacation Voucher.” What happens is you will call a company and they will give you a low quote on your junk car or truck. Then they will tell you that it includes a free vacation for up to four people.

When the company comes out to pick up your vehicle they do not have the vacation vouchers with them. They tell you that they will mail vouchers to you. Of course you never receive the vouchers in the mail.

This is fraud anyway you put it. This practice is wrong and will ultimately give all junk buyers a bad reputation.

I get calls all the time asking us if we offer these vouchers, no we don’t.  We do not practice this fraud nor will we ever. Houston Junk Car Buyer has been in business for many years and is family owned and operated. Our motto is to treat others the way we would want to be treated!!

We will give you a quote that we will stand by!!  If you have any questions or comments you are more than welcome to give us a call, even if we don’t buy your vehicle we will still answer your questions.

The smartest course of action would be to get money from the automobile. Trading it in as a down payment for an additional car is not recommended because you’re going to get pennies on the dollar for the vehicle. You will make better money by selling your car or truck to car removal companies. There are some things to be familiar with, when you’re working with auto removal companies:

Pay-They need to pay out a premium price for your vehicle whatever the state it’s in. This involves the buyer to do thorough research on the car prior to making an offer. The offer they provide you with on the phone ought to be the price they pay you. Car removal companies must also not charge you for removal.

Safe Removal: you may still find toxic chemicals which are left in your automobile like mercury and lead. These must be removed by the car removal company in a eco-friendly manner.

Thoroughness-they need to be quick in coming out to pick up your car or truck.

Selling your old junk car isa terrific way to earn a little extra money for whatever needs may arise

Here is whats going on a person wanting to sell their car uses a search engine to find a car buyer. They then contact one of the results in the search engine.  The company gives them an estimate  on what they are willing to pay for the vehicle. (Usually more then what any salvage company is willing to pay). If the person accepts the offer the buyer then sends you an envelope containing a few pieces of paperwork for you to sign and return. This is all fine but the problem with this is that you have to return the title to your vehicle with the paperwork. The paperwork that you signs is paperwork that you are giving up all rights to your vehicle.

The companies tell you not to worry we are sending a wrecker to pick up your vehicle. The thing is the wrecker does not have the payment for the vehicle. The company says that they are going to send you a payment for the vehicle in the mail. Well at the point of sending and signing the paperwork then returning it in the mail this whole thing becomes a civil issue not a criminal issue. The only way to get your money is to sue the company in court. Whats real odd is they will not send a wrecker until they receive your paperwork, then why can’t the wrecker at lest bring the customer a check?

I will not name any of the companies names due to legal issues. My legal team says that it is not allowed.

Keep in mind we at Houston Junkcar Buyers will pay you on the spot at the time that we pick up your vehicle. Call us at 713-592-2576 to get a free estimate or to arrange free pickup.
