What Is the Trade-In Value of My Car?

"What is my car worth?" That's what brings most drivers here, and you aren't the only one who wants to know the value of your used car - we want to know it, too. Northern Alabama drivers can get an estimate after a quick inspection at Greenway Hyundai of the Shoals - but if you want to know what kind of trade-in value you're working with. Keep in mind, there are a few factors that affect trade-in value, including: 

• Mileage 
• Mechanical Condition 
• Car Features 
• Exterior/Interior Condition 
• The Existing Car Market

Value Your Trade-In: FAQs

Q: Can You Trade In A Financed Car In Tuscumbia AL?

A: Yes, you can. If you have positive equity (your car is worth more than what you owe on your loan), it's almost as easy as trading in a car that is paid off. If you have negative equity, you'll need to roll over the difference in the car's value and what you owe into a loan toward your next vehicle or pay the difference to the bank.

Q: How Soon Can You Trade In A Financed Car? 

A: There's no time limit on trading in a finance vehicle, but it's a good idea to wait until you have positive equity. 

Q: What Does It Mean To Be "Upside Down" On A Car Loan?

A: Being "upside down" on a car loan is the same thing as having negative equity. If, for example, you owe $30,000 on a car that's worth $25,000, you have negative equity.
