    If only I can give 10 stars! If you don't want to be a deer in the headlights when you go to a dealer, I highly recommend these guys. Hyundai Palisade is selling like hotcakes. I inquired Friday and got my Palisade Monday. Kim has been very prompt with my questions regardless of time and day. They will make sure you'll get the best offer and search for the car spec that you wanted. Aside from Covid, it's really better to do everything online and let BuySide do the negotiating. Unless you're a professional haggler, I wouldn't trust myself dealing with Car Dealers who will make sure they will get most of your hard earn money since they do this everyday. All Hyundai Palisade dealers were 1+ hours away from home. BuySide fee is very reasonable compared to all the time and trouble that I would have to do. Their website is very user friendly and it's easy to get an idea on how much you will spend. The online process was seamless and they delivered my car on time. Thanks Kim and Christopher for the best service and goodluck to your business! I will definitely consider BuySide again in the future.

    Love my brand new car!

    Best car buying experience ever! This company worked hard to accommodate my needs, and my concierge, Kim, was a great communicator who made sure I knew what was happening every step of the way. The process is super fast-- they do everything from locating the car to negotiations to working out financing AND they deliver the car to your door (especially appreciated during the pandemic). Chris delivered mine and walked me through the paperwork-- he was professional, efficient and personable. The entire time from my first online contact to car delivery was six days, and would have been shorter if I could have settled for a different color. If you're at all dreading going to the dealership or are timid or like me just don't like negotiating for a new car, this is the way to go. I'd give seven stars if I could.

    I recommend using Chris on your next purchase on a new car. He is responsive and transparent throughout the process. Chris informed me early on the challenge to secure a BMW X3 M40i with my preferred options due to the chip shortage, but found one destined to a dealership with a couple more options. He secured the car and took care of all of the paperwork. He kept me informed and very responsive to questions. Chris takes the headache of purchasing a car and his interest is providing great customer service and brokering the best deal for you. Thanks Chris!

    New Volvo!

    Ask the Community - BuySide Auto

    I'm in Oregon near Portland. I'm interested in a used car (pp) near the SF airport. My plan would be to have a pp sale inspection by a professional auto shop. If I then want tobuy it can you handle the purchase? I would transport it to Oregon. Gordon

    We are not able to assist

    Is $395 still your fee in 2024?

    $395 if you pay cash for the vehicle. $495 if you lease or finance

    If the buyer is also interested in adding manufacturer prepaid maintenance or extended warranty to the car to you assist with that (negotiate discounted price)?

    Yes. We gets quotes on both products through the dealer and usually they discount the price over the MSRP. Also, on the extended warranty, we have a 3 party that is usually ~40% less expensive than what the manufacture offers

    Are there any additional fees or charges associated with buying a car from your dealership?

    No. We charge are service fee to broker the transaction but otherwise there are no additional fees other than customary fees charged by all dealerships. We aim to get an overall better deal than the buyer doing on his/her own. It is all about… 

    Can you offer advice on the best time to buy a car to get the most favorable deal?

    Most often the best incentives are November and December. However, manufacturers may offer great incentives at any time to move over supply so what I tell my clients is the best time to get a new car is when you are ready!

    Does the warranty cover any type of service?

    If I am understanding your question correctly, all new cars come with a manufacturers warranty. Warranty is completely separate from service. However, some manufactures include service for 2/3 years. e.g BMW, Toyota, VW

    How much do you charge for your services?

    Our service fee is $395

    Is Buyside Auto Broker only deal with new or leased cars but not used cars?

    Correct. We only help on new car purchases or leases. However, we handle trade-ins by collecting relevant information and photos and then we work to find the best dealer/wholesale buyer. Thus, our trade-ins and stand-alone trades are competitively…

    I found Howard on Yelp a few months ago when my wife and I decided to purchase a new Honda Odyssey…read moreElite because we now have a 19 months old daughter. I spent quite a bit of time on Howard's website reviewing what his service provides. To make the long story short, he helped us find the vehicle with options we wanted and he does the negotiating. Howard was able to locate the vehicle in approximately 3 days. He was very professional, honest, and easy to talk to. He explained the entire process to me and what I should be expecting, how the car market is specifically for the vehicle I am looking to purchase, price, as well as what to do when we are at the dealership. Overall I would highly recommend Howard to anyone looking to purchase a vehicle as I would use his service again in the future. Actually I will not do it any other way knowing most dealerships' goal is to extract as much money as possible from you.

I hate going to the dealership, going through the hassle & being pressured to purchase a car with unecessary add ons & fees. I did my research & found Howard! He did all the searching & negotiating with the dealership for me. He was very responsive through text & gave me options to choose from. Howard gave me the best deal on an exact car that I've wanted! All I had to do was fill out the form with specific details that I wanted in a car. Highly recommend working with him to find a car. Thanks again Howard!
