Wheelchair Vans For Sale By Owner

For Sale By Owner Precautions

All the vehicles you see are "For Sale By Owner". Anyone can list their wheelchair van for sale by owner at BLVD.com.  These are private sellers who no longer need their van and want se sell it to someone who needs it. They may also be a scammer, make sure you perform your due diligence before buying from a private seller.

Benefits of buying from the owner:

• A price savings may be available
• Privates sellers are usually in a hurry
• Always get a Carfax report before the sale

Downsides of buying from the owner:

• Often has no warranty
• No service department
• Financing may not be an option
• No pre-reconditioning a dealer usually performs

What to look for when buying from an owner

• No lien on the title
   - If there is a lien, perform the transaction at the bank whom the lien holder is listed.
• The vehicle does not have a salvage title
• Ensure the selling party is the owner.
• ALWAYS take possession of the title upon payment.
   - You should never make payment without receiving the title.

When buying from a private seller, BLVD recommends you always get a vehicle inspection from a local mechanic you trust. Have the engine and drivetrain inspected for major issues.  Always view a copy of the title and ensure it's in the sellers name, does not have a lien and is not classified as "Salvage".  Salvage title means the vehicle was at one time considered a "Total Loss" by an insurance company thus destroyed in a major accident. It may have since been repaired, but a fully repaired vehicle is never as good as one that has not been crashed.
