Greetings

My wife and I have always enjoyed everything about cars. Everything that is except buying cars from used car lots. So as my first career as a civilian engineer and program manager with the Air Force begins to come to an end we have decided that selling cars would be something that we could truly enjoy. So in 2005 I became a licensed independent automobile dealer license in Florida.

The concept for our business is radically different than a traditional used car dealership, so we don't think of ourselves as a used car dealership even though we must abide by the same regulations. Florida regulations require that maintain a physical location; our "Lot" and the insurance industry requires that we give an approximation of our inventory.

We call ourselves Auction Brokers becasue that really what we do. Our customers typically know cars and most importantly know what they want and are smart enough to know that they are not going to find that car at a reasonable price at a traditional "used car lot." What we do is find that car for them at the major dealer only auctions and act as their middleman in the transactions. They save thousands of dollars and we make a little on each transaction.

Neither my wife or I are really sure where this will lead us, right now all we know is that we're having fun doing it and helping a lot of nice people buy wonderful cars at great prices and saving them the hassle of "dealing" with dealers.

I'll be writing more about our business and the effect that the internet is having on automobile remarketing but for now I needed something to start this Blog off.
