Buyer's Inspection Service
Facebook Marketplace sellers aren't always truthful. Craigslist sellers definitely aren't. I'll ride along, put a real mechanic's eyes (and scan tools) on the vehicle, and tell you straight: what it's actually worth, what's wrong with it, and whether you should buy it.
Why You Want Me There
OBD2 scan, fluid check, undercarriage look, lift kit / frame rust / leak / tire check, test drive. The stuff sellers hope you skip.
I tell you what it's actually worth based on condition — not the seller's wishful asking price. Walk in with a number you can defend.
If it's a money pit, I'll tell you. If it's a steal, I'll tell you that too. I have no skin in the sale either way.
Seller pressuring you to come today? Book a same-day slot. I'll be there with 2 hours notice (within 25 miles).
How It Works
Pick an open appointment time, drop in the seller's address or ZIP, paste the Marketplace listing if you have one, and include the VIN and mileage so the intake is complete.
Show up at the appointment with the seller. I roll in with my scan tools, do the inspection, take it for a drive with you.
Verbal verdict on site, full notes texted to you after. Pay the remainder ($50 base, more for travel / same-day) and you walk away with a real answer.
