Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly do you do?
I’m a auto broker! think of me as your personal car finder and deal negotiator. Like a real estate agent for cars! I take the hassle out of buying by handling the search, communication, negotiation, and paperwork so you can skip the stress and get straight to the keys.
Do you charge a fee?
I only get paid when you purchase a car through me! There’s no upfront fee or consultation charge and I’m completely transparent about how I get paid. It’s all built into the purchase process, so there are no surprises.
Can you help with financing?
Yes! When we go live, I’ll have access to a network of banks and lenders so you can secure competitive financing directly through me, without having to shop around or walk into a dealership.
Do you handle trade-ins?
Absolutely. I’ll help you get a fair offer on your current vehicle, whether it’s through a dealer partner, an instant offer program, a direct buyer, or our own pre-owned inventory. I’ll make sure it’s all part of a smooth transaction.
Can you help with both new and used cars?
Yes! I can find new, used, or certified pre-owned vehicles depending on what fits your needs and budget. I’m not tied to any brand or inventory, so I’ll search across all makes and models.
Do I need to be local to work with you?
I primarily serve Fort Collins and the Northern Colorado region, but I may be able to help you remotely or refer you to someone in your area. Reach out and let’s chat about it!
How long does it take to find a car?
Most clients are behind the wheel within 1 to 3 weeks, depending on how specific your search is and what’s available. I move quickly but I'm never pushy.
Why not just go to a dealership?
Dealerships work for their inventory. I work for you. That means no pressure, no upsells, and no wasted time bouncing from lot to lot. You tell me what you want, and I go find it on your terms!
