Copy your VIN to your clipboard and just paste it into each site. Quicker than plate lookup.
Enter “I own the vehicle” where applicable — you don’t need to get into the details of your lease payoff or loan balance until you’ve eventually chosen one entity to sell to.
Use a Google Voice or some other device you can turn off at will. Otherwise your real phone will be bombarded initially.
The above are national or cover a large geographic area AFAIK. In addition, there are smaller operators that only cover a small footprint as well as individual local dealers or chains:
Since there is not a review thread for WeBuyAnyCar yet…
I just sold my 2021 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport (leased through Chrysler Capital since Nov 2020, 7500 miles, $41k MSRP) to them today. I highly recommend them, or at least their Arlington, VA location (Curtis!). They honored their estimate - just took a couple hundred off for a scratch on the door and a $300 doc fee. Walked out with a nice check after a thorough inspection and a ton of paperwork.
Here are the estimates I received:
WeBuyAnyCar = $43,680
Vroom = $43,200 (I know they no longer buy leases)
Driveway = $42,280
AllCars = $42,000
Inride = $41,989 (they took off $1k for a “regional adjustment” when I went in person - came across as quite unethical since the person had the new number before I arrived and could have told it to me before I made the trip)
AutoNation = $41,500
CarBuyerUSA = $41,211
The dealer I got the Jeep from = $40,000
ALGO Nation = $39,300
Rodo = $38,000
GMTV = $38,000
LeaseHackr Equity Hacker = $37,250
Carvana = $33,662

If you don’t mind… I am looking to return my wife’s lease. How easy is the process, and were you able to get into another car relatively easily? We are looking to extend our lease a few months because of the lease market nowadays.
The actual process with WeBuyAnyCar was pretty easy. There was some back-and-forth prior to showing up to make sure they had everything they needed with CCAP for the lease buyout. At the appointment, the person I was dealing with inspected the car, copied my license & registration, had me fill out a bunch of paperwork, cut me a check, and took the keys. It took about 45 minutes.
I already had another car lined up… I put in a 4xe order with a broker on this site a while ago. The WeBuyAnyCar office was in a strip mall, not at a dealer, so it didn’t look like there was an option to get into another car with them.
The worst part of the process was giving my information to all the different sites - I still haven’t been able to stop all the emails and texts I get from the other sites trying to buy my Jeep!
Don’t see it listed but AutoBuy in South FL usually beats most offers or matches the offer. A friend just sold a Subie to them and the process was quick. 15 min to inspect and check out the car and they offer you their valuation. If you have a carmax,Carvana, vroom quote they match or beat them. The process from inspection to sale was about 1 hour if you decide to sell to them. Offer is good for 5 days but they push to buy your car same day so if the offer is good enough go for it!
I just tried with Autobuy “we pay the max” and they told me i’ll have to pay about $2-3k in fee about my personal buyout quote for them to do. They’ll take possession of the vehicle, send payoff payment to captive bank as if it was you, and once i rec’d the title to sign over to them. I didn’t expected the hefty fee.
