Thinking of buying a used car? If lockdowns have given us anything, its time.
As consumers we have been given more time and digital tools to research before we buy.
There are two parts to consider when you’re researching – educating yourself and pricing.
You can apply this rule to any purchase, from cars to houses, or everyday items such as groceries.
You should first focus your research on the car itself.
Even if you already know what make and model you want to buy, you should still take the time to research to ensure you are making the right decision.
Once you have decided on the makes and models you can begin to research prices.
There are a number of websites you can use to see the current advertised price of vehicles.
However, these sites only show you the advertised price not that price the vehicle was actually sold for.
Prices People Pay is the ultimate used car price guide.
We’re dedicated to helping people realise a fair price when buying or selling used cars.
We do this by providing actual data from recent auction and dealer sales from across Australia.
By seeing what other people paid, you can buy and sell with confidence.
Prices People Pay is powered by Datium Insights, a Sydney-based data analytics company that partners with reliable sources across Australia to create an extensive and accurate database of vehicle information.
Datium Insight’s products, services and research are used by businesses across Finance and Automotive industries and are regularly quoted in media and news publications.
When performing research, it is important to take your time.
Don’t rush. Keep notes, write, and don’t take shortcuts, especially when doing car research.
And, finally, when you research used cars, it’s not exactly exciting so don’t procrastinate.
Like the housing market, car pricing does go up and down.
It is a good idea to spread out your car research over several days, because the last thing you want to do is overwhelm yourself.
