Most car buying services — brokers, concierge companies, even some “advisors” — have financial relationships with dealerships. They earn referral fees, dealer commissions, or kickbacks when they send buyers to certain lots. That’s not independence. That’s a conflict of interest wearing a helpful face.
A truly independent car buying advisor earns nothing from the dealership — ever. Their only income comes from the buyer. That single fact changes everything about the advice you receive.
- Paid referral fees by dealerships
- Incentivized to close deals fast
- Limited to “partner” dealers
- Advice shaped by who pays them
- May upsell dealer products
- Paid only by you — never dealers
- No pressure to close any deal
- Works with any dealer, any brand
- Advice shaped only by your best interest
- Will tell you not to buy if the deal is wrong
I ask myself a simple question with every deal: if this were my own family sitting across that desk, what would I tell them? That’s the standard I hold myself to. Not closing a deal. Not making a commission. Just making sure you get treated fairly.
I left the dealership side because I believe integrity means doing the right thing — even when no one is watching. That belief is the foundation of everything I do here.
