There are many reasons why someone might buy from a repossessed car auction. You might be looking for a cheap way to get a great deal on a new car or maybe you want to buy and resell. You could enjoy buying cars and fixing them up or maybe you are a collector traveling from auction to auction looking for that one particular item. These automobiles that are repossessed from individuals who were unable to pay for them are now available to the public (or sometimes private) auctions to bid on.

Buying from a repossessed car auction is a great idea but make sure you go into it knowing all the facts. These cars are typically sold "as is" and not only is the auction house not responsible for any damages, but they are also likely not aware of them. They are not required to do inspections or to validate the condition of the cars that they are selling. You might want to purchase an extended warranty on the vehicle you win from auction so that you are covered for any unexpected problems or expenses. There are some cases where the automobiles will come with a warranty and if this is the case, they will let you know before bidding but typically there is not one, especially with repo cars.

Repossessed car auction houses are usually selling vehicles on behalf of someone else - such as bank, car dealership, loan company, etc- and they do not have any information on the condition of these vehicles. They are simply given them and told to auction them off so that the companies that repossesses them. You will want to do your own work to find out as much about the car as possible such as if it was wrecked before, it has had major damage, floor or fire damage and even the owner history of the car. You can get the vehicle identification from the auctioneer and find out this information for yourself from a place like Carfax. Always back up information about repo cars before buying them, to protect yourself.
