I am looking for a skilled online researcher to find underpriced used cars in the UK that I can buy and resell for a quick profit. This is a commission-only role. You will receive 20% of the net profit on any vehicle that I purchase through your lead and later sell at a profit. What I want: I am mainly looking for cars that are: - Underpriced for the market - HPI clear - Listed with poor photos - Written up with weak or careless descriptions - Being overlooked by other buyers because the advert is bad - Easy to improve with better photos and a better listing - Able to benefit from a professional valet, deep clean or minor cosmetic improvement - Likely to sell quickly once presented properly The ideal opportunity is a decent car with a poor advert, where the main value is being missed because of bad presentation rather than major faults. Your responsibilities: - Search Facebook Marketplace, Gumtree, eBay Motors, Auto Trader and similar UK platforms - Find cars priced below market value - Prioritise listings with poor photos and poor descriptions - Compare each vehicle with similar cars for sale - Check HPI status, MOT history, mileage, advisories and general vehicle details - Estimate a realistic buy price, resale price and likely profit - Identify cars that can be improved through valeting, cleaning and better presentation - Flag cars that can be turned around quickly - Send strong opportunities as soon as possible before they are gone For each car, provide: - Listing link - Registration number - Make, model and year - Mileage - Asking price - Suggested offer price - Estimated resale price - HPI status - MOT expiry and advisories - Known or likely faults - Estimated repair or preparation costs - Estimated net profit - Reason it is underpriced - Reason it has resale potential - Notes on how the poor listing could be improved Priority vehicles: - HPI-clear vehicles - Popular, easy-to-sell UK cars - Cars with clean enough condition to flip quickly - Cars that mainly need valeting, cleaning or minor cosmetic work - Cars needing better presentation rather than major repair - Listings with dark, blurry or limited photos - Listings with vague, lazy or badly written descriptions Avoid: - Cars that are not HPI clear - Serious engine or gearbox problems - Structural damage - Category vehicles - Cars with heavy electrical issues - Problem cars that will sit for too long - Deals where profit depends on major repairs Commission terms: - No upfront payment - 20% of net profit - Net profit means final sale price minus purchase price and direct costs - Direct costs include repairs, transport, checks, valeting, cleaning, parts and advertising - Commission is paid only after the vehicle is sold and profit is made - No commission is due if I do not buy the car or if there is no profit - Commission applies only if you were the first to submit that vehicle to me Example: - Purchase price: £2,000 - Direct costs: £300 - Sale price: £3,500 - Net profit: £1,200 - Your commission: £240 To apply: Send one real example of a UK used car that fits this brief. Include: - Listing link - Why it is underpriced - What is wrong with the advert - What cleaning, valeting or presentation improvements it needs - What you think it could sell for with better photos and a better listing - Estimated net profit Generic applications will be ignored.

Hello, I am an online researcher who will find underpriced UK used cars with poor photos/descriptions, HPI clear, and easy to improve with valeting and better presentation. I work on commission‑only: 20% of net profit after sale. For each car I will provide listing link, reg, make/model, mileage, asking/offer/resale prices, HPI status, MOT, costs, profit estimate, and improvement notes. I prioritize quick‑flip, popular models. I avoid category cars or major mechanical issues. Regards, Zafar

I WAS LOOKING FOR A PROJECT LIKE THIS. I have just handled a similar research project where I identified undervalued cars on Auto Trader. The goal is to find hidden gems that can be flipped for a quick profit, ensuring a smooth process for both of us. I’ll focus on listings with poor photos and weak descriptions—these are often overlooked by buyers. It’s easy to transform them with a little TLC and better presentation. Communication will be clear and straightforward, keeping you updated with each opportunity. REACH OUT, LET'S SEE IF WE ARE A GOOD FIT. Regards, Stefan.
