Selling your car in Singapore can be complex. Avoid these common mistakes that cost sellers thousands of dollars.

01 Not Getting Multiple Quotes

Never accept the first offer. Get 3-5 quotes from different dealers. COE prices fluctuate, and quotes are only valid 24-48 hours.

02 Not Checking COE Expiry

Cars with 2-3 years COE remaining are in highest demand. Selling when COE is about to expire lowers your car's value significantly.

03 Ignoring Loan Settlement

Outstanding car loans must be settled before transfer. Dealers can help, but always get a payoff letter first.

04 Not Cleaning the Car

A clean, well-maintained car commands 5-10% higher offers. Get detailing done before showing your car.

05 Rushing the Sale

Take time to compare offers. The highest quote isn't always the best deal - consider payment speed and paperwork.
