Shopping Checklist for a Great Purchase Experience
Choose a Non-Commission Salesperson that cares about you. 
Don’t settle for someone who is chasing a paycheck—find someone who puts your needs first and is genuinely invested in helping you make the right decision.

 

Demand Transparent Pricing—No Surprises!
Insist on seeing every price option upfront: lease, finance, and cash. You deserve clarity and honesty from the start.

 

Uncover Every Fee Before You Commit
Don’t let hidden fees catch you off guard. Make sure every cost is laid bare so you can make an informed choice.

 

Protect Yourself with Exchange Policies
Life happens, and minds change. Ask about exchange policies to ensure you’re covered if your heart shifts after the purchase.

 

Insist on Used Vehicle guarantees
Don’t be caught off guard—demand clear details about reconditioning and any potential expenses for essentials like tires, brakes, batteries, and bulbs during the first 6 months. You deserve to know exactly what you’re getting!

 

Don’t Settle—Walk Away If You’re Not Satisfied
If you’re not getting the answers or respect you deserve, leave. Your confidence and peace of mind are worth more than any deal.

 

Demand the Dealer’s Best and Final Trade-In Offer Upfront
Don’t settle for games—insist on receiving the dealer’s best and final offer for your vehicle right from the start. Ask them to explain how they got to their value. If they keep changing the trade-in value, it’s a clear sign they weren’t honest with you from the beginning. You deserve transparency and respect!

 

Feel the Thrill Before You Buy—Test Drive!
Don’t just imagine it—experience it! Ensure the car’s feel, finish, and performance match your expectations before making it yours.

At Applewood, trading in or selling your vehicle is all part of the All Good Experience—a process designed to make things simple, transparent, and stress-free. Your dedicated brand concierge will start with a detailed vehicle assessment alongside you and then connect you with an experienced appraiser who will evaluate your car and gather insights from our expert appraisal team.

We go above and beyond to ensure you get our best trade-in price upfront. Our Appraisal Team—our resident data nerds—analyzes every detail, from retail comparisons like time on the market, price adjustments, and sale velocity to auction values and market trends at the local, provincial, and national levels. They even factor in reconditioning costs and sales patterns to deliver a fair and accurate offer.

This upfront price is valid for 7 days or 700 km, whether you choose to trade in or sell your vehicle directly to us. We leave no stone unturned so you can feel confident in your decision!
