Who Is Repo Joe?
After nearly two decades in the car business, "Repo" Joe had bought, traded and sold every kind of car imaginable. Yet he noticed there were always two types of vehicles that were far and away the best bargains: vehicles that had been repossessed and sold at special dealer sales and vehicles that had been leased. The problem was, they were often hard, if not impossible, to find.

In 1998, Joe decided to utilize the relationships and contacts he had made with repo men, banks, credit unions and auto sales over the past twenty years to help build a team of experts to travel the nation and help dealers find these vehicles and make them available to customers. Repo Joe and his team serve as liaisons during these events. They are paid no commissions and under no pressure to sell you a vehicle.

How Does A Repossessed Vehicle Save Me Money?
There are several reasons why the Repo Joe Sale allows you to save money on a vehicle. For one, new cars and trucks depreciate thousands of dollars the minute you drive it off the lot. These vehicles have that depreciation taken from the selling price on top of the fact that a portion of each vehicle has already been paid for.

Additionally, Repo Joe and his team take no profit from the sale of these vehicles. They are paid a small flat fee by the disposal point. Again, these savings are passed right on to the buyer.

What Kind Of Cars Are Available?
As you might expect, many of the vehicles that are repossessed are among the most popular in the country. While Repo Joe can't guarantee he'll have dozens of Honda Accords, Ford Explorers and Toyota Camrys at every disposal point, it stands to reason that since there are more of these sold new, there are a lot of them that come Joe's way.

The best way to see what Joe may have that fits your particular needs is to let him know what you're looking for. Click on the left on the city nearest you and use the Find A Car link. If your vehicle is available, Repo Joe & the disposal point will contact you with the details ( price, etc. )

Why Doesn't The "Find A Car" Search Form Instantly Pull Up A List Of Inventory?
Repo Joe and his team travel from coast-to-coast conducting these events at various locations each week. The typical sale usually lasts no more than two or three days. Integrating with the numerous dealerships' inventory control software and databases for such short periods of time is cost-prohibitive, and in some cases, simply not possible.

However, all Repo Joe Sale dealers assign an internet manager to administer the Find A Car search function of this site. All inquiries are handled quickly and efficiently so that you can know the inventory situation before you arrive at the sale site.

How Can Repo Joe Be In So Many Places At The Same Time?
He's magic! Okay, not really. As we've been mentioning, Repo Joe has a staff of automotive professionals that he has personally trained to host the events occurring simultaneously across the country. The Repo Joe Sale has become high in demand with both customers and dealers alike. When it became apparent he could no longer attend every event, he made sure only the best and most professional automotive veterans would be used to represent him and his sale.

My Car Was Repossessed. Can Repo Joe Help Me Find It?
Unfortunately, probably not. Even if your vehicle is offered for sale at a Repo Joe event, you'll need to contact the lender that invoked the repossession order.
