Car Brokers: Why We Do What We Do!

Buying the Best Family Car

Many dealers will go above and beyond to service clients and be fair as a business to themselves and their customers. While some others are about just themselves. They will bend rules, they will duck, weave and mislead.

Our team has spent several years in the Motor & Finance industry, we’ve all worked with some of the biggest groups and companies in Australia, we’ve also held some fairly senior positions in both Motor and Finance Industries.

Needless to say, there are some very unpleasant sides and characters in the industry. Don’t think we need to say much more on that.

Many of us reached a point that to be very frank, we hated it. It did not sit well with us, so we decided to leave the industry and start something different that made us feel more comfortable about what we do.

Please understand, we are not saying that all dealers do the wrong thing by clients. There are many that are very good at what they do and they also genuinely want to do the right thing as well. But the industry has been tarred by a brush because of some bad ones.

Who are the good ones and who are not? That’s the million dollar question.

We genuinely and sincerely wanted to be able to help our clients.  So we looked at “How can we do what we know while giving everyone the best and fairest outcome for the entire transaction. Whether they are buying a car, Selling a car or need Finance”.

So, as car brokers here’s how it all works;

Finding your car

When looking to purchase a car, you tell us what you are after, we will go to the trusted dealer network and get a minimum of 3 prices. We generally try to utilise dealers that at the very least are within the same state. However, we have used interstate dealers at times as many have had excess stock and were willing to offer our clients some super competitive prices, or had some strong bonuses on their cars because they were purchased or registered in a certain period.

We can help with just about any make or model. VW, Subaru, Ford, Toyota, Mazda, Holden, Honda, Isuzu, Hyundai, Kia, etc., or if you are looking at Prestige or European, we can do that too – we have excellent contacts in Mercedes, BMW, Land Rover, Jaguar, Audi, and Porsche, to name a few.

We have saved our clients thousands of dollars throughout the transaction, and here’s why;

  • Relationships that we have developed over many years in industry – call it “mates rates”. We can get the sharpest deals, sometimes, purely comes down to that.
  • Buying power as we are sourcing multiple vehicles per month, whereas a consumer will generally source one every 3-5 years.
  • Industry Knowledge – what’s coming in, going out. Stock holding. Due to relationships, we also know who is holding too much stock, who needs what stock and, how to source it.

Selling your car

When it comes to selling your car there are a couple of options that we offer our clients. It depends on urgency of course.  We usually get 3 prices from industry buyers and we present you with the best. That can be anywhere from $500-$5000 better than trade-ins.

We also offer our clients the service of selling their car on their behalf – it’s like having a real estate agent sell your house for you.  Why would someone do that?  Well several reasons, not least;

  • Convenience
  • Industry Knowledge
  • Dealing with prospective buyers
  • Negotiation
  • Time saving.

Many of our clients, like most of us are simply busy.  By selling their car for them as a dealer, it allows them to get a dealer price, not a wholesale price, which can often be thousands of dollars more.

Why can we get more this way than you selling via private sale? Simple;

  • We have access to data that is available on market, to see what is selling, average turn-around, pricing, etc.
  • We can also offer clients a warranty, finance and, trade-ins.

We usually get our clients an average of over $3000 net to them after all costs.

Arranging finance

Most dealers will have access to 2-4 Lenders that they deal with day to day.  Car Finance is an important part of a dealer’s day-to-day business for various reasons, however, the best offer that you will receive, isn’t necessarily the best offer for you.

  • We have over 30 Lenders – most of the majors including CBA, Westpac, ANZ, Macquarie, St George, Capital Finance, Liberty, AFS, RACQ and, the list goes on.
  • We can service all clients from full-time employed to casual – we can help self-employed people, even if only just got into business.
  • We can help our customers buy just about anything from a car, boat, truck, equipment, machinery, caravans, all the way to personal loans, and home loans.
  • As a broker, we work for you – not the bank or lender. So the offer we give you, is what is best for you!
  • We are more than happy for you to compare what we offer you and if we do get beaten for any reason, please let us know, maybe we may have missed a small piece of information that could help us get you that slightly better deal.
  • We always do our best to get it right the first time, but we are human, we can miss things.

Buying your car, selling your car and finance

We generally save our customers approx. 10% -15% of the price of a new car. We get them approx. 10% – 20% more for their trade-in and save them anywhere from $1000 to $5000 on the finance.

We have saved our clients an average of $5122 per complete transaction.

So why do it all yourself, when you can engage experienced experts to do it for you. Contact us to save thousands and get your weekends back.
