As the owner of De Occasion Fabriek, Sietse Meijer single-handedly buys and sells around 600 cars a year. Valuing all these cars used to take a lot of time, but since he started using JP.cars, that’s a thing of the past.
“I valuate a lot of cars. Before, I had to compare each car on different websites and rely on my own knowledge to make a purchase. I still do that, but the JP.cars software saves me a lot of time when appraising. I mainly check if the ETR is high. If the ETR is 4 or 5, I’m eager to place a good bid on such a car.”
The software not only helps Sietse save time, it also provides new insights.
“Since I appraise in large volumes, I happen to overlook specific options. For example an SUV with a tow bar, which is in high demand. JP.cars then shows me that the ETR is higher with a tow bar, which prompts me to offer a bit more to increase my chances of getting the car. Or the other way around: a car I expected to have a high ETR, but then JP.cars shows me it’s not a good deal. I feel like I’m making fewer bad buys now that I use the software.”
