BMW Buyer Match, Menlo Park California

No. We facilitate introductions between sellers and qualified buyers and earn a match-making commission at closing. We do not take title, hold inventory, or handle vehicle payment funds. You and the matched buyer handle everything related to the sale directly.

We can flag your lien situation to buyers up front. Buyers in our network who routinely handle financed cars will see the disclosure. The lien payoff and balance wire are handled by the buyer directly, the same way a private party transaction would handle them.

Dealer trade-ins on BMW cars routinely come in 30 to 45 percent below retail. Our matched-buyer transactions land closer to retail (typically 5 to 12 percent below) because the buyer is buying for themselves or for retail listing, not for a wholesale auction. On a six-figure car the difference can be $30,000 to $60,000.

Buyer wires the funds to you. If you have a lien, the buyer can wire the lender's payoff and the balance to you on the same day. Method, timing, and escrow are between seller and buyer. We are paid via separate Square invoice after closing.

We surface BMW listings to buyers within 24 hours of acceptance. Interested buyers signal back with target price ranges. We then present those buyers to you with their profile, target price, and timeline. The next step (introduction or pass) is your call.

Commission is invoiced separately to seller and buyer at closing. We document everything in writing before any introduction: the amount, who pays what portion, and the time window the commission applies. There are no hidden fees, listing charges, or contingencies beyond what the signed disclosure documents.
