Buying and selling motorcycles at auction: how to make a profit?

Make financial planning

First of all, It is essential that you make a good financial planning. There are important points to consider before submitting your bids. After all, no matter how cheap a car at auction may seem in relation to the FIPE table, there are costs that you need to take into account. For example:

• possible repairs to the vehicle;
• taxas do leilão;
• vehicle documentation;
• vehicle transport;
• 5% commission to the auctioneer.

Carefully study the auction notice

É preciso ler com muita atenção todas as informações do edital do leilão. This document contains everything you need to know about the auction stages and the conditions of the property. With this measure, you avoid unforeseen events and guarantee the main basis for your decision-making. In the notice, you will find details such as:

• origin of the motorcycle;
• condition of the motorcycle;
• documentation conditions;
• fines and tax pending issues;
• payment terms at closing, etc.

Inspect the motorcycle

Um erro que muitos arrematantes cometem e se traumatizam com leilões é não inspecionar a moto antes de enviar os lances. Seja porque participam de um leilão de motos online ou porque confiam no leiloeiro, muitas pessoas arrematam o lote e só depois descobrem que entraram numa fria.

It is very easy to avoid this unpleasantness by paying a visit to the motorcycle location or receiving relevant information that you have done so. Although you cannot start the motorcycle, it is possible to have significant impressions of the true condition of the motorcycle by checking it up close. Additionally, consider:

• have the company of a mechanic to assess repair costs;
• check the motorcycle's license plate to find out more about its history;
• If it is from an insurance company, assess the risks of selling a damaged motorcycle.

As you can see, there are details that you should consider before purchasing a motorcycle at auction. By taking these precautions, it is possible to guarantee great profits and avoid common losses when buying and selling motorcycles.
