Sell Your Car Today | Lakeway Auto Buy Center, Morristown TN

01 One number is not the market

Fairness should not take a full Saturday.

You were about to pay to boost a listing. Then meet a stranger in a parking lot who never shows, or offers half. Then try Carvana, CarMax and two dealerships, and wonder if the number was fair.

Or let us do all of that. Every route checked for you, your KBB Instant Cash Offer on the report first, and our firm offer beside it.

Estimates describe what a vehicle might be worth. Conditional offers are what a third party said it might pay, usually before an inspection. Neither is a Lakeway number. Best third-party offer on this report: $16,200.

Confidence level

Confidence: High

Four independent sources agree within a narrow band; expected to secure near the higher side of the range on verification.

Market rationale

The instant offers all land between $15,650 and $16,200 because each one assumes an inspection discount later. Your CR-V is a clean one-owner AWD with new tires, so I am comfortable committing above those numbers today. Private party could go higher, but that is weeks of showings and strangers — this number is firm, includes pickup at your house, and we handle the credit union payoff directly.

— Corey Mendez, Acquisition Manager

Why this number

Three factors, plain English.

1Condition as you described it: good, one owner, new tires. Verified at pickup.
2Your strongest market is Atlanta, where comparable CR-Vs are transacting around $18,400. Our bidder network and the professional market software we pay for show us where your car is worth the most, and we price it for that market.
3The instant offers all assume an inspection discount later. Ours does not, because we are the ones doing the inspection.

Lakeway firm offer · separate from the comparisons above$16,750Subject to the vehicle matching the condition you described. Payoff handled directly with your lienholder; any equity is paid to you at pickup.

Pickup is included in your offer. No additional pickup fees.

Firm today. The market moves every day, so this offer is made on today’s market. Selling on a later day? Your buyer re-checks the market that day and confirms the number with you before anything is signed. Paid on the spot. Funds are verified before you release the vehicle. Figures are as checked on the date shown and may change. Third-party names identify where each figure came from.

This report is yours to keep. Whether you sell to Lakeway, sell somewhere else, or keep the car, every number above is yours.

What could change this offer

So nothing at pickup surprises you.

Condition different from what you described: undisclosed damage, warning lights, or heavy wear.
Mileage meaningfully different from what you entered.
Title, ownership, or payoff details that don’t match. We help you sort them either way.
Missing keys, fobs, or listed equipment.

If you are trying to sell a vehicle, Lakeway is extremely competitive when it comes to giving you as much if not more than your car is worth. STOP wasting your time selling on Facebook Marketplace and to see Lakeway Auto! I was in and out in 20 minutes and they gave me MORE than what I would have gotten anywhere else!

They saw our truck on Kelley blue book website, called and offered more than quoted there. Reagan organized the sale and everything went smoothly! The were even able to come and pick up the truck from our home! Great experience!

Reagan was very easy to work with. Great communication, reliable and made a great offer I couldn't pass up! Also a big shout out to Tommy & Jeff who met me at my bank an hour away to finalize everything and pick up my car. I definitely would use LakeWay Auto again!
