Hello,
Looking for some advice about getting started as a used car dealer on a very small scale (part time) in NJ.
NJ seems reasonable in terms of requirements. Probably the most expensive part is having a physical location. I was considering downsizing and possibly moving to something mixed residential/light industrial. I believe that, and a sign out front, might meet one of the major requirements.
My basic plan would be to get all the necessary paperwork/licenses/insurance and then attend a few auctions throughout the year. I really don't know the money that can be made on an auction vehicle, although it must be good because I have had a hard time in the past finding a used vehicle on Craigslist that wasn't for sale by a dealer.
I know there is a wealth of experience here, and I would appreciate any advice as I learn about this possibility.
Thanks!
