Ask Your Peers  Used car dealer - including salvage title vehicle sales (Closed)

Looking for a market for Arizona used car dealer.

Many vehicles are purchased from auction or other dealers and have salvage titles. Insured does some minor body/service work and turns them around. He also occasionally does body work on vehicles he does not own.

Current carrier is cancelling due to non-compliance with recommendations. Insured says he has taken care of all clean-up and housekeeping issues but is not getting good communication from current carrier. Current policy expires soon and I highly doubt we will have loss runs prior to needing coverage.

Thanks!!

from my experience your options are Scottsdale, Occidental, western heritage, and last resort is Prime ( they are expensive). Call me if you have any questions. Call USG they are an MGA. But you will need to have the loss runs to bind. Sounds like he has had some issues in the past. Call me with any questions. 843-276-7330 and press option 1. we do alot of garage, and some try to hide things. those are the ones to have alot of claims.
