At Central Houston Cadillac, we make it easy to value your trade and apply its worth toward your next luxury car or SUV.

If you’re from Houston, Bellaire, Rice Village, or West University Place, Texas, our professional team offers fair, transparent appraisals and a smooth trade-in process designed to save you time and maximize your return.

When you choose to trade in your vehicle, work with a team that values accuracy, integrity, and convenience. Trading in with us lets you complete everything in one place.

Our appraisers use advanced market data and local demand trends to determine a competitive value for your vehicle; our estimates reflect real-time pricing from nearby markets. You’ll also enjoy the advantage of potential sales-tax savings since, in many cases, your trade-in value can reduce the taxable portion of your new purchase.*

You can even apply your trade toward a brand-new Cadillac or one of our pre-owned luxury vehicles for an even greater upgrade experience.

Getting started is simple. Begin by using our online Value Your Trade tool on our website. Just enter basic details about your car—make, model, year, mileage, and VIN—and you’ll receive an instant estimated value.

From there, bring your vehicle to our dealership for an in-person inspection. One of our Cadillac-certified appraisers will evaluate your car’s condition, including:

• Exterior and interior appearance
• Tire and brake wear
• Maintenance history
• Installed technology or premium features

Once the appraisal is complete, we’ll provide a final offer based on current market values and your vehicle’s overall condition. If you accept the offer, we’ll handle all paperwork and title transfers for you. You can immediately apply the amount toward your new Cadillac or receive payment if you’re not ready to buy.

For added convenience, our finance specialists can show you how to use your trade-in value as a down payment to lower monthly payments or shorten your loan term. It’s one of the easiest and most efficient ways to move into your next vehicle.

Before visiting our dealership, a few simple steps can help you secure the best possible offer, including:

• Clean and detail your car: A well-presented vehicle always makes a better first impression.
• Fix minor issues: Replacing light bulbs, cleaning stains, or repairing small dents can boost value.
• Gather documents: Bring your service history, spare keys, and title information to speed up the process.

Even if your vehicle still has an outstanding loan, our team can work with your lender to handle payoffs and discuss solutions for any remaining balance or negative equity.
