A used car can give your handsome resale value if you present it in the best possible way to prospective buyers. When you have put your offer for used cars for sale on multiple media like newspapers, internet and social media, be ready for a deluge of visitors. Prepare your car by giving it a thorough wash. Remove all your belongings from the car; especially important papers. You would not want to go through legal hassles just to retrieve those papers once the car is sold. Next, keep all papers related to the car, including maintenance records, ready. You must show these to prospective buyers if and when they so desire.
