Why Should I get a Pre Purchase Inspection
Why Expert Auto Appraisals?
We specialize in all Special Interest Automobiles and Motorcycles. We handle Porsche, Corvette, Ferrari, Mercedes, Camaro, Mustang, Chevelle, Mopar, and every other type of collector or classic car. Our experience has enabled us to enjoy a unique perspective on the real value and marketability of the cars we all enjoy.
Many inspection services have qualified inspectors located in several locations. The services they offer are targeted to the inspection of cars, truck, and SUV’s that are used as regular transportation by their owners. The typical car they may inspect is a 4 or 5 year old Toyota, Honda, Chevy, Ford, with the occasional BMW or Mercedes thrown in. These inspectors do a very thorough job using a predetermined checklist for operational flaws, scratches, dings, tire wear, etc. The inspectors usually have a mechanical background, with many of them being ASE certified technicians. I feel that they offer the great majority of the automobile buyers a great service at a reasonable price.
Expert Auto Appraisals inspection services are not designed to service the majority of the buyers. Our services are designed to adapt to a very broad spectrum of specialty vehicles and the enthusiasts that own them. We have been exclusively involved in the marketplace of specialty, collector, and high end automobiles since 1985 professionally. We understand the significant concerns that dramatically affect the market value of particular cars. We have a great amount of experience with all American Muscle Cars, Porsche, Corvette, Jaguar, Aston Martin, Ferrari, Lamborghini, Alfa Romeo, Iso Griffo, AC, and everything else from Abarth to Zagato.
I look at countless cars that have been nicely restored, and look and function very well. However for many of the clients that find cars of interest on many of the online venues such as Ebay, Craigslist, Hemmings, and the countless other sites available, they are concerned about condition, but authenticity is also a high priority, often the highest. When we are inspecting cars that are presented as numbers matching, original, I focus on these issues to help my clients identify if this is what they are trying to buy, regardless of nice it looks, or how good it runs.
Though the condition of the nicks, scratches, and tires is important for an inspector to report on, on this type of example, I work on acquiring the most important information that could affect this vehicles value, and most importantly, the value to our client. This also allows us to remain objective. If we have an example of a significant car that is very correct, but does have small flaws or very serviceable issues, we won’t allow those trivial issues to sway your purchasing decision if we are looking at a fundementally correct car. We aim to assist you in purchasing a car, presenting ourselves professionally, and ensuring your experience is a good one, and keeping you from making a mistake that you’d only regret. We would like to add that most sellers are very happy to accommodate our inspection, and also have a higher comfort level of engaging into a transaction that all parties are better informed. It’s amazing how often we are able bring an issue to a sellers attention. It helps all parties in putting together a fair and equitable deal. We hope to serve you for your vehicle inspection needs.
