Frequently Asked Questions

How many auctions are in or close to my zip code?
Use our "Auction Locator" to search auctions in your state.
Why are the cars so inexpensive?
When the government or banks seize properties, they really don't care what the vehicle sales for because quite frankly a supervisor has been ordered to liquidate funds fast. The government is supposedly looking to protect the public's best interests and will reimburse individuals involved in fraudulent scams up to the amount recovered. Banks on the other hand, will go after the individual for the difference lost at auction. This is usually called a charge off on a person's credit report. If the bank cannot recover the loss, they close the charge off as uncollected.
Why doesn't everyone buy vehicles through stressed auctions rather than buying from outlets like autotrader.com or dealership's?
As discussed before in our learning section of this website, the golden question is where and when do these auctions take place. Most people do not know where to access the information needed, and when the auction will take place.
Is it hard bidding on vehicles at auctions?
It is fun and easy. The level of learning ability to do such a task is below average. However; we consider anyone with the knowledge of finding and accessing the auctions well above average since less than 1% of the world population know and use this lucrative source?
Are all vehicles/items purchased at auction AS-IS? Do they have warranties?
Yes, most auctions announce if a vehicle has a warranty or not. Most auto/vehicle auctions will allow you to do a "post sale inspection" which gives you the right to have an auto auction mechanic specialist perform a complete road worthiness inspection on the vehicle. The post sale inspection is a pass or fail test. If it fails, you will have the opportunity to do one of three things. First you can decline the purchase and there will be no obligation on your part to buy it. Second, you can renegotiate the price to help pay for the repairs found during the inspection or thirdly, you can accept the offer and buy the vehicle AS-IS stated with the problem. It is the most productive way of purchasing a used vehicle because you not only buy it at a herculean discounted price, but have a warranty on it as well.
Can I check the Car Fax on an Auto before I buy it?
Yes, most auctions will list the vehicles online. We recommend you physically go to the auction your first time, so you can touch, smell, and see the vehicle in person. You will be able to access a computer at most auctions or on your smart phone. If it is a must, plan ahead how you will run the Car Fax once you are at auction. You may need to contact the auction before hand to make sure there will be computer facilities available to do so. The vehicle identification number is in the top driver side dash board and on most inside door jams.
Do these vehicles have clean titles?
Yes and No, the majority of vehicles sold at auction have clean titles. However, some of our auctions that we will list on our website are insurance auctions. Don't rule these babies out. You can buy brand new cars with very little damage, for EXTREMLY CHEAP, and do some minimal repair work and have a really nice vehicle. They are branded titles. We distinguish these auctions from the others listed on our site. Most of them will be called "Something Insurance Auction".
