WASHINGTON--(BUSINESS WIRE)--webuyanycar.com (http://us.webuyanycar.com), a fast, safe and fair alternative for consumers selling their cars privately, announces its debut in the United States, tapping the Washington DC area for its first branch openings. Recently named one of UK’s fastest-growing tech firms, webuyanycar.com is bringing the same successful business model to the U.S. webuyanycar.com hopes to make the same impact in the US – starting in part with the Washington DC market.
The new, non-franchised DC-area branches of webuyanycar.com employ local residents and managers who were not previously affiliated with the used car industry. Branches are located in Alexandria, Herndon, Manassas and Rockville.
What sets webuyanycar.com apart from dealerships and other services is that it purchases vehicles directly from the public without also trying to make a sale. This eliminates pressure from sales people – as there are none – making it pain-free for customers to receive a fair price and quick payment for their car.
“The concept for webuyanycar.com has been so successful with car owners in the UK, we wanted to offer the same popular service to car sellers in the U.S.,” said a representative for webuyanycar.com. “We help DC residents save the time and money it would take to sell a car on their own, or to a dealer that may not have interest in a particular make and model and offer a lower price.”
How the process works:
- Prospective used-car sellers log on to webuyanycar.com and provide basic information about the car such as the make, model and mileage. They also have the option to go through a more comprehensive assessment using the “reconditioning wizard” to upload any changes to the vehicle such as part replacements, interior and exterior changes, damage, etc.
- Customers receive an instant online quote in as little as 60 seconds based on real-time market conditions such as market demand, oil prices and credit markets through webuyanycar.com’s industry-leading pricing engine. Upon receipt of the quote, the consumer has the opportunity to instantly schedule an appointment at the nearest branch, including Washington DC branches. Once scheduled, the branch will contact the customer within the hour to confirm the appointment, provide directions and answer any questions.
- When the seller arrives at the branch the information provided by the seller is confirmed, the car is quickly inspected with the customer, and a final valuation is reached. After the customer accepts the price, webuyanycar.com quickly handles all paperwork and immediately provides the customer with a check.
“We’re in the customer service business, not the used car business,” remarked a representative of Car Group Holdings, LLC. “The DC branches are company-owned locations, not affiliate dealers, which enable us to provide fast, safe and fair service to differentiate webuyanycar.com from other solutions.”
webuyanycar.com has plans to rapidly open new branches across the country throughout the 2011 fourth quarter into the first quarter of 2012. For more information or branch locations, visit http://us.webuyanycar.com.
