There are several factors that influence the price a dealership will sell a car for, including supply and demand, dealer incentives, bonuses on finance, trade-ins, aftermarket options, and the dealership’s sales and negotiation processes. Ultimately, it often comes down to who you know and what you know.
With nearly 20 years in the industry, I have connections at almost every brand of dealership. Not only sales managers and dealer principals, but also owners of large dealership networks. These relationships give me insight into pricing that most salespeople don’t even have access to, allowing me to negotiate from a more informed position.
In private sales, it’s my years of experience, market knowledge, and understanding of vehicles that enable me to find the best deals and negotiate effectively on your behalf.

It’s always a good idea to do some research and get an idea of what vehicles are worth. However, if you’ve already inquired with a dealership and received a price, it can sometimes make it harder for me to negotiate on your behalf. Due to dealership etiquette, even if I can secure the same car at a lower price via my contacts, you are essentially “claimed” by a salesperson, and out of fairness to them, there might be less flexibility on pricing.
For this reason, it’s best to contact me before speaking with any dealerships. That said, if you have already received a price, I’ll still likely be able to get you a better deal, though it may not be as competitive as if we had connected before you spoke to anyone.
