There are literally so many cars to look at I use "can you send the vin" as a test of honesty, or being serious ... most of the time I get blocked or ghosted but simply asking for the vin eliminates a lot of wasted time...

@@rrnonya5472 exactly, if they can't send the VIN it's not worth wasting the time to go there

facts: always start with an INTEGRITY check!

Great video. Me personally the first thing I ask for is to see the title. It would be a waste of time if I check the whole car , test drive and come to find out the title is missing or it’s not good. No title no car.

@@Big-moneyBM great point!

Hey man my dad started his Auto body shop 3 years ago and we have been thriving, dont know if you're going to see this but we want to try to start selling cars and the only thing we need is a dealership license. Can you make a video about how to get a dealership license?

[@JuanGrajeda-l2n]

Also we know a lot of people that also sell cars and Paint shops and mechanic shops we have the sources to get cars serviced and worked on for a good price all we need is a dealer ship license and access to the dealer ship auctions. :]

Great video! How are you doing with cars bought from ACV ? I know the inspectors don’t drive the cars. Thx!

[@FlippingUniversity]

@@MarcosSilva-kd3kz so far it's actually still been my favorite but I'm in the middle of handling an arbitration now actually

[@MarcosSilva-kd3kz]

@@FlippingUniversity Don’t matter what auction you are dealing with, arbitration is always tough… Hopefully they will do the right thing. But from experience, you can never win with arbitration you either lose or best case scenario you break even.
