Turn appraisals into trades and trades into profit

Are you capturing every trade-in opportunity on your lot? 

Trade-ins are your lowest-cost, highest-margin source of used inventory. The dealers who capture the most of them aren’t working harder — they’re appraising more vehicles. With the Trade Capture Report, you can track every dimension of your trade capture performance:

• New and used sales with trade-ins — how many of your new and used deals included a trade-in, so you can see exactly where acquisition opportunities are coming from.

• Total trade capture — your overall capture rate, so you know how many trade opportunities your team is winning overall.


• Appraisal-to-sales ratio — how your appraisal volume stacks up against your sales, benchmarked against the 200% target that drives the strongest trade capture results.

The math is straightforward. Dealers who hit a 2-to-1 appraisal-to-sales ratio see trade capture jump by 19%,¹ and missed trades to competitors drop by half.² The more trades you capture, the less you depend on costly auction channels to restock your lot.

Watch AccuTrade in action — from trade capture tracking to appraiser efficiency reporting that keeps your whole team accountable — and see how every appraisal translates directly to more inventory and more profit.
