Car Buying Advice and Dealer Quote Reviews

ClearCut Auto Inc. is a licensed broker-agent in British Columbia. Outside British Columbia, ClearCut Strategy and ClearCut Clarity are advisory only: we advise you, the buyer, and never contact the dealership.

We are fee-only. You pay a flat fee, and no dealership, lender or third party pays us anything. You deal with the dealership yourself, with a professional in your corner.ClearCut Auto Inc. · Broker-agent licence B70016 · British Columbia

Two ways we help outside BC

Dealership insight: common tactics used at dealerships and how to navigate them confidently
No specific deal, quote, or numbers are reviewed: you implement the approach independently

Before you sign

ClearCut Clarity

$250 plus GST or HST for your province, calculated at checkout

For clients who want to negotiate independently but want a professional second opinion before committing.

Review of the agreed vehicle purchase price, deal structure, and every product and charge appearing on the quote or purchase agreement
Assessment of whether the purchase price and overall deal are fair relative to current market conditions
If financing terms (interest rate, term length, monthly payment) appear on the dealer's quote, those terms are reviewed and guidance is given on the rate. ClearCut does not introduce a lender, suggest another lender, or help with any credit application
Identification of any concerns with any element of the deal (price, fees, financing, or back-end products) before you sign
Findings given on a call and in a written summary provided to you
For licensed insurance products (life, disability, and critical illness coverage), ClearCut Auto Inc. does not provide licensed insurance advice; any insurance-specific advice must be obtained from a properly licensed insurance professional

What you provide: The dealer's quote or purchase agreement for the deal to be reviewed, with personal identifiers removed as set out in Section 5 of the Agreement.

How findings are delivered: On a call and in a written summary. The summary is written for your own decision. It is not addressed to, or written for, the dealer or any lender.

One quote per purchase: Each Clarity purchase is one review of one quote or purchase agreement. A revised or different quote is a separate purchase. The service ends when the written summary is delivered.

Clarity is a professional evaluation of the deal you were quoted. It never tells you whether to buy.

Advisory only. No dealer or lender communication, negotiation, or representation of any kind is included.

Best for: First-time buyers, family vehicle purchases, or anyone who wants peace of mind that the deal they have negotiated is fair before they sign.

Available in Alberta, Saskatchewan, Manitoba, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island.

What ClearCut does not do

Advice only. You deal with the dealership.

ClearCut is not your broker, agent or representative. The National Advisory Services Agreement does not appoint ClearCut to act for you, and ClearCut has no authority to act, sign or speak for you with anyone.

Under either service, ClearCut does not:

contact, communicate with or negotiate with any dealer, private seller, lender, warranty provider or other third party, at any stage;
find or source a vehicle, or arrange a purchase;
arrange financing or a lease, introduce you to a lender, suggest taking the deal to another lender, or help complete a credit application;
accept, hold or transfer any money for a vehicle purchase. You pay the seller directly and take title from the seller;
prepare any letter, form or other document for you to give to a dealer or lender;
set a target price, prepare a counteroffer or lay out a negotiation plan for a specific deal;
advise whether you should go ahead with a purchase;
advise on life, disability or critical illness insurance. Those are licensed insurance products, and advice on them must come from a properly licensed insurance professional; or
sign, accept or decline anything on your behalf.

You deal with the dealership directly, make every decision, and decide alone whether to sign any quote or purchase agreement. ClearCut does not guarantee financing approval, vehicle availability, any price, or any savings.
