Are there any "for sale by owner" filters?

Asked by Eric Sep 28, 2024 at 03:13 PM

Question type: Shopping & Pricing

It seems like this is now dealers only? What if us regular people want to sell
our cars on here or buy cars from other people and not a dealer? How can we
filter the settings to see individual sellers?

Autotrader is the same. If I remember correctly these sites are all owned by or some are by Cox Automotive which has an interest in a lot of dealerships ergo of course they are all dealerships anymore. A conglomerate if you will. They have no interest in for sale by owner because they lose money. Good luck on your search. I've been looking myself and every vehicle I see is a dealership in background in some fashion.
