Government auto auctions are a great place to buy a used vehicle because the government does not want to keep these cars and trucks. The longer they hang on to them, the more it costs them money, so they hold auctions to sell the inventory. This gives the buyer a huge savings on Kelly Blue’s suggested book value. Another reason it’s good to shop at these government auto auctions is that many of these impounded vehicles are basically new or close to being new. So not only can we get these vehicles at great prices, but the condition of the vehicle can be almost new. Something that is much harder to come by at the usual local auto auctions.
Government agencies impound cars for all kinds of reasons, and many of these actions are to help pay off past debts that the owner has built up. Now, instead of holding these vehicles until they are retailed, they can get rid of many things at once at auction. The longer they hold onto something on a seized lot, it costs them money, so to cut their losses, they are willing to let these cars and trucks go for incredibly low prices. Did you know that your local auto repair shop that has a used car sale lot will likely get your vehicles from auction? So by doing this and cutting out the middle man, you can keep those profits in your own pocket. Depending on the area you are in, there may be government auto auctions that are held more than once a month. Obviously larger cities and surrounding areas would be the places to look.
Not only can you save a lot on your next car or truck by buying from a government auction, but you can also get a vehicle that is in fantastic condition. I’m talking about next to new. Some of these vehicles are very well cared for and it’s a shame the previous owners put themselves in this position, but without them we wouldn’t be here right now. Cars and trucks with very little mileage. The oil has been changed at the recommended times and the owners just took the time again. Some of these things may have aftermarket items, like custom wheels, spoilers, and all sorts of different things.
There you have it with just a couple of reasons to buy your next used vehicle from Government Car Auctions. Governments don’t want to hold these items in inventory that cost them money so that we can get them very cheaply, as well as find some gold gems out there. Cars and trucks that are well cared for and even have aftermarket upgrades add to the value of the vehicle while at the same time allowing us to source it at extremely low prices.
