Frequently Asked Questions About Selling a Car (FAQ)
Can I sell a car that still has financing on it?
Yes, you can. This is very common with us. We just need you to provide information about which financing company holds your loan, and we will take care of paying off the remaining balance directly to them at the time of the sale.
What factors affect my car's price, and how can I get the best price for my car?
A car's value is affected by its condition, service history, and trim level. A regular service history, good condition, and a high trim level all increase the purchase price of the car. The more details you provide about your car, the easier it is for us to give you a competitive offer.
How long does it take to sell a car?
Selling your car to Saka is a quick process. At its fastest, the money can be in your account the same day.
Do you buy cars from all over Finland?
Yes. We buy cars from anywhere in Finland. We have 30 locations across Finland, and you can drop off your car at any of our locations. If needed, we can also pick up the car from your home.
How do I receive the money after the sale?
We transfer the sale amount (or the remaining balance after financing) directly to your account via electronic bank transfer at the time of the sale. Depending on your bank, the funds will appear in your account either immediately or by the next business day.
Do I need to buy a replacement car from you?
No, you don't — as long as your car is under 10 years old and has been driven less than 225,000 kilometers. If you do purchase a car from Saka, we are happy to also accept a slightly older or higher-mileage car as a trade-in.
How can I sell a car from an estate?
Selling a car from an estate is possible as long as the necessary documents are available. For the sale, you will need the estate inventory deed, a power of attorney from the other beneficiaries, and the notification section of the vehicle registration certificate. We will transfer the payment to the estate's bank account.
