Car consignment and advisory in Newport Beach

Newport Beach is home. I live here and have served clients across the harbor, the islands and the bluffs for about twenty-five years, so an engagement here usually begins with a short drive, not a shipping quote.

Personal representation in Newport Beach

Harbor-front garages often hold a weekend car, a daily driver and something rarely driven side by side, and many owners are seasonal. I work directly with owners, estate managers and family offices to handle appraisals, sales and storage. That includes cars that have barely moved in years.

Every make, from collector cars to everyday trucks and SUVs

Neighborhoods I serve include Balboa Island, Lido Isle, Linda Isle, Harbor Island, Bayshores, Dover Shores, Big Canyon, Port Streets, and the rest of Newport Beach.

How car consignment in Newport Beach works

Car consignment in Newport Beach is straightforward: you keep ownership while I prepare, present and sell the car on your behalf. I assess its condition and history, review recent comparable sales, and recommend whether a private placement, a curated online auction or a major auction house will serve it best.

Once terms are agreed in writing, I manage the photography, buyer screening, viewings, negotiation, payment and title transfer, and keep you informed throughout. If you would rather not consign, I can make a direct offer instead, which is often a more rewarding alternative to a dealer trade-in.

How it works

  1. An initial conversationTell me about the car and what you'd like to achieve.
  2. A candid valuationGrounded in real sales data and thirty years in the market.
  3. The right routeConsignment, auction or direct purchase, agreed in writing.
