How to Buy a Car Through a Broker

Buying a car has become easier than ever with online resources, Internet sales managers and perhaps the easiest way of all, the car broker. Car brokers will do everything for you from negotiating the price of the vehicle to having the vehicle delivered to your home or office without you having to ever step foot into a dealership. Consider them your own personal shopper for your new automobile. They have built relationships with dealerships so that you do not have to. In turn, this saves you both time and money.

Buying a New Car With an Auto Broker

1

Talk to your friends and co-workers to see if any of them have already worked with a broker. This affords you a direct connection with your broker and a firsthand account of how he performs business. If you don't know anyone that has used a car broker then search online for available car brokers in your area.

2

Visit your local car dealership and test drive the exact model you want to purchase. Look at all of the options and color combinations available for that model.

3

Tell your broker what you want. Be as specific as possible. Explain what colors you are open to as well as what options you want. Also, let her know what type of purchasing you plan on--lease, finance or cash buy.

4

Let your broker do the work to bring you an offer to the table. Be specific about what what type of deal you want, how much you want to spend, monthly budget and other key factors.

5

Once your car broker has found the right car for the right price, have him schedule a time and place to deliver your new car to you. Have him bring the paperwork, the new car (fully detailed and filled with gas) to either your home or office at your convenience.

6

When the car is delivered, check for any dents, dings, scrapes or scratches before accepting delivery. If you find any problems, have the delivery person write it on the "Due Bill" to prevent confusion about who is responsible for fixing the problem.
