Frequently Asked Questions

Questions about getting your dealer license?

Will this be my own company and dealer license?

The goal is to establish your own dealer business rather than simply adding you as a buyer under someone else's dealership. The exact entity, ownership, license type and state requirements are reviewed during your consultation.

Can I sell both retail and wholesale?

Yes you can sell both retail and wholesale.

Can I buy and sell vehicles in all 50 states?

Yes you can Buy & Sell Anywhere in the USA as well as Canada and in other countries.

Can I attend dealer-only auctions?

Once your dealership is properly licensed, you can apply for dealer access with auctions for which your license type qualifies. Each auction has its own registration, credential and approval requirements.

Do I need a physical location?

We have options that do not require a lot of a specific location.

What if I have never been a dealer before?

You do not need to already know the entire business. The process can include guidance on auctions, vehicle valuation, inventory buying and dealership operations in addition to licensing assistance.
