"For some people, buying and selling cars is a hobby. For me, in this economy, it is how I pay my bills. It's so great to know that I'm not alone AND that I have somewhere to turn for help."
Frequently Asked Questions - General
CarFlipping is the process of buying cars, vehicles or automobiles and selling them for more than you pay for them. CarFlipping follows the simple business rule of....”Buy Low, Sell High”. Like any business, CarFlipping is identifying reasonably priced goods that can be resold at a higher price by i). Re-Marketing the product better than the original seller; ii). Restoring, repairing, or improving the product; or iii). Selling the product to a larger potential buyer pool.
Believe us when we say this, CarFlipping.com and its Members, collectively, have tried flipping just about everything else you can imagine. Anything from antiques, baseball cards, coins, dolls, computers, bicycles, office equipment, building materials, stocks, oversupply inventory to yachts, tractors, real estate (residential AND commercial), airplanes, etc. There is incredible opportunity in flipping the previously mentioned items HOWEVER, the CarFlipping.com members are ONLY flipping cars now for the following reasons (to name a few):
●Significantly more BUYERS. Lets face it, everyone needs a car.
●Growing Market. With the current Economic environment, less people are inclined to go buy new cars and are keeping their used cars longer. This is increasing demand for used cars.
●Less risk. When Flipping Cars for a Profit you are buying a TANGIBLE item. As long as it is insured, it will not go to ZERO and you wont loose all of your money (like stocks for example).
●More Money to be made. It is not uncommon to earn 30% in less than 30-45 days when flipping cars. This is 240% to 360% percent annual return.
●International Market of Buyers. There are Buyer all around the world for the right cars.
●Less initial investment. Unlike flipping other items like houses, furniture, etc. you can start flipping cars with as little as $200 (or zero with the FlipBuyer Program)
●MORE FUN. Yes!!! You can drive them, work on them, show them off, take them to shows, etc. etc.

Not a problem! The vehicle industry is enormous and the market you are about to enter is one of the largest markets in the world. There are an estimated 806 million cars and light trucks in the world. This represents one of the largest transaction based industries in the world. Think of the numbers: with 806 million vehicles in the world and the average owner keeping a car for 5 years, this translates into approximately 161 million car transactions a year! We’re talking about hundreds of thousands of transactions every day worth millions of dollars. What other industry has that? We guarantee that this is NOT an issue. In fact, many of our members report that there are more deals “on the radar” than there are hours in the day to get the deals done!
Consider this – Manhiem Used Car Auctions recently reported that the average large dealership’s net profit for used vehicles was only $230.00 per car and $14.00 per car for new cars! So, why do dealerships even bother with new cars? The answer is to drive traffic for people buying used cars or trading in used cars. The large dealership new auto sales numbers are horrendous! The large dealerships make a lot of their money through financing, service, parts, etc. What's more is that anyone that has been to a dealer auction lately knows that the dealers are fighting tooth and nail for quality inventory. Even the new car stores (yes, the dealerships with the balloons and 50 foot blow-up gorillas) are desperate for used car inventory as those sales are what allow them to keep their lights on.

In the CarFlipping Manual, we recommend that people check with their state to see how many cars they can flip in a year and NOT be required to get a dealers license. Many states are as high as 15 cars per year! (Indiana, for example, lets you flip 12 cars/year without a license...that's one a month!) You can see an interactive map below or go HERE for specific state requirements.
Options are:
- Get a dealers license in your specific state (wholesale license or retail license depending upon your sale channel and volume). You can cheaply and easily do this with these guys: www.dlcnetwork.com
- "Flip" or "Curb-stoning" titles (This is illegal in most, but not all, states. This is when you buy a car and leave title open for your buyer to fill in. We do NOT recommend this, but it is a practice in the industry).
- Team up with a local car dealer to do the paperwork for you. There is often a small fee involved ($150 to $399). This can certainly be the easiest route.
All in all, it really depends on your situation: where you live, how many cars your want to flip, etc. We explain ALL options in the CarFlipping Manual including detailed positives and negatives. Ultimately, making a recommendation specifically for you depends upon your individual situation.
