Instant Car Offers: How Long They Stay Valid

Some websites help people sell their used cars.

First, you type in information about your car, and the website gives you a rough guess of what it is worth.

That guess is just an estimate, not a real promise.

To get a real offer, your car must be checked in person by an inspector.

Once the inspection is done, the website uses computers to quickly figure out a real price.

On Cars24, dealers bid on your car like in an auction, and the best price becomes your offer.

This offer does not last forever, usually staying open for one day up to about one week.

After that, it expires, and you would need to go through the process again.

The offer can also change later if you gave wrong information about your car.
