Used Car Lots? (sales, lease, loan)

[kelle]

I need to replace my "all cash/no payments" commuter car (under $8K). I'm looking on Craig's List and the stuff that's priced well is selling fast. Are there any small lots/dealers that I should consider in my search?

My daughter bought a car from a local that she found on Facebook. I don't do FB but she showed me under Marketplace and click on Vehicles I assume it picks up where you live or within so many miles.

Also https://www.carfax.com/ you can search in your area by make and price.

You can check with the Title Loan companies to see if they have any repos. I don't know any used car dealerships.

Thanks everyone!

Update: I found where all of the used cars are "hiding." They're on Facebook Marketplace! So long Craig's List.

Quick question: If I buy a car in NC at a lot as an SC resident, will the dealer collect my SC property tax fee or will I get a bill in the mail?

If you can stretch your budget to a little more, Hertz sells fully warranted cars at well below blue book prices:

And yes, you will have to pay SC property taxes

You will pay the sales tax at purchase plus tag and registration fee. You will receive your property tax bill in the next 45-60 days after purchase.

——-
Beginning July 1, 2017, people who purchase vehicles in South Carolina will owe a new type of fee instead of paying a sales tax.

Due to legislation commonly referred to as the Roads Bill, if you buy or lease a vehicle, trailer, semi-trailer, or other automobile on and after July 1, 2017 that will be titled and/or registered in this state, you will owe an Infrastructure Maintenance Fee (IMF) instead of sales tax. The IMF is in addition to applicable title and registration fees and property taxes. You will not be able to title or register the item until you pay the IMF.

The amount of IMF you owe is based on the sale price of the item you buy. You will owe 5% of the purchase price, but it will be no more than $500. If you purchase an item that is $9,999 or less, your IMF will be 5% of the sale price. If it is $10,000 or more, you will owe $500.

You have 45 days to register your vehicle.
