Buy Right Before You Buy
Every profitable sale starts with a smart purchase. Dealer-Mate keeps your true cost visible from the moment you raise your hand.
Auction Sourcing
Work your buy lists at Manheim and independent auctions — track bids, wins, and landed cost so you know your real number before you buy.
Trade-Ins
Appraise trade-ins with VIN decode and book values, and roll the payoff, recon, and pack straight into the unit’s cost.
Wholesale
Buy and sell wholesale with the same cost accounting — every fee and transport charge lands on the unit, not in a spreadsheet.
One Complete Record for Every Unit
The whole story on every vehicle — from the day you buy it to the day it’s gone.
- VIN decode — decode any VIN to pull year, make, model, trim, and factory options in seconds.
- Book values — check book values side-by-side with your cost so you never price blind.
- Full cost accounting — every dollar lands on the unit: purchase price, recon, pack, and fees — so your gross is always real.
- Photos — attach photos to the vehicle record and push them straight to your website and marketplaces.
Price It Right, Merchandise It Fast
Get units priced, stickered, and lot-ready without the busywork.
- Market-based pricing — price from live market data, not gut feel — and reprice stale units before they age out.
- Window stickers & Buyers Guides — print stickers and Buyers Guides right from the unit. See Forms & Printing.
- Lot-ready checklists — checklist every unit through recon to frontline so nothing hits the lot half-done.
Recon Tracking and Aging That Protects Your Turn
Days cost money. Watch both.
Reconditioning Tracking
Track every recon job with costs, vendors, and days-to-frontline per unit — know exactly when each vehicle is ready to sell.
Aging Reports & Turn Analysis
Aging reports and turn analysis flag stale units before they eat your margin. See Features for the full reporting suite.
