We do all the work to establish your very own used car business and obtain your dealer license for you. You will be the owner of your new corporation or LLC.
It is required that a dealer must maintain a place of business. Our office space satisfies that requirement to apply for and keep your dealership active and in compliance.
You will have access to dealer-only auctions across the USA, Canada, and many worldwide countries. You'll be able to retail or wholesale vehicles to anyone in the USA and export vehicles across the globe.
You will be receiving a dealer license that allows you to sell wholesale or retail.
In most states, yes — a home address typically won't qualify. UGI sets up a state-compliant office for you that meets your state's requirements, so this isn't something you have to figure out on your own.
Having tickets or accidents on your record doesn't automatically disqualify you. Our insurance specialists review each applicant's motor vehicle record to determine what's insurable — many dealers with a less-than-perfect driving history still get approved.
A retail license lets you sell directly to consumers. A wholesale license generally limits you to selling to other licensed dealers. We'll help you figure out which license fits your business goals.
Yes. Once your license is issued, we help you register for auction access — including Manheim, ADESA, ACV, OPENLANE, and hundreds of regional wholesale auctions — so you're not stuck renting someone else's access.
Yes — your dealer license, once issued, is valid to buy and sell in all 50 states. UGI works with dealers across the country, not just Arkansas.
That's who we're built for. UGI is run by experienced car dealers, and we offer one-on-one and group training so you're not learning the business alone. We'll walk you through everything from your first purchase to your first sale.
