How Croozly works

Croozly says it lets people buy and sell cars directly, cutting out the middleman. Buyers browse a catalog of listings with vehicle history and safety information. Croozly offers secure private party payment and title support, and a concierge service for buyers who want help finding and negotiating a car. It also points buyers to independent pre-purchase inspection options and to vehicle protection plans for after the factory warranty ends.

Why private party buyers need an inspection more

When you buy from a person instead of a dealer, there is usually no dealer warranty and no return window. A history report shows what was recorded. It does not show worn brakes, a weak AC compressor, a transmission that slips when hot, or a hybrid battery near the end of its life.

Our inspection is about the car's condition today. You decide what to do with the findings.

Questions people ask

Can I get a Croozly car inspected at a Miami shop?
Yes. Arrange with the seller to bring the car to us before you pay. We inspect it and give you written findings with photos.
Does Croozly require an inspection?
Croozly recommends reviewing the vehicle, its history and independent inspection options before you commit. An inspection is your choice, and we think it is worth it on any private sale.
The seller is outside Miami. Can you still help?
We inspect cars at our shop in Miami. If the car is far away, look for an inspection near the seller.
What if the inspection finds problems?
You get a written price for each repair. Use it to negotiate, ask the seller to fix it, or walk away. We never pressure you to repair with us.
