If a car is for sale for a long time is does not always mean that there is a good deal to be head.
In a normal situation where car prices are decreasing there are a few strategies you can use to get a stellar deal and compensate some of that depreciation. In the upper segment we saw rgar discounts can be had in markets with a high carried over inventory rate combined with high price reductions on unsold inventory.
For all of these markets with a low carried over inventory rate but high discount percentage, it can pay off to pay close attention to the specific car you are interested in. If it has been sitting around for a while, you know that there is a good chance that there is some wiggle room in the price. Instead of waiting for the price to drop, it could pay off to simply talk to the seller.
Finally, we look at situations where cars are not selling and also not being reduced in price. These are the more risky purchases. You could get a good deal as the market is gaining strength, but also end up overpaying. Doing market research to understand the price trend and drivers is key.
When it comes to the strong markets, it is of course very difficult to find extraordinary deals. Prices themself hardly display any winter dips but price changes for unsold inventory do. You should then also look for cars than have been for sale longer than average and are still for sale in the winter.
