Who are our suppliers of new vehicles?

Manufacturers

Most manufacturers will offer larger new car discounts to organisations who commit to purchasing large volumes of vehicles. Autoebid will seek bids from some of these organisations on your behalf.

UK main franchised dealers

UK and european main franchised dealers usually work on a profit margin of approximately 10%. As a rule of thumb, the more common the vehicle, the larger the discount that can be obtained. Main dealers work on a system of target bonuses, ranging from service level agreements to target bonuses. When a UK main dealer is close to its monthly target but the end of the month is fast approaching, the dealer may be prepared to offer more than the standard discount on the vehicle that you are after, sometimes reducing their profit margin to zero in respect of that vehicle, in order to safeguard its monthly bonus. In this way, autoebid’s customers may benefit from the reduced prices being offered on a single vehicle by such a dealer. The other feature of the auto industry that autoebid seeks to exploit on behalf of its customers is locating vehicles that are near the end of the supplier’s “adoption period”. This is the time-period which a dealer has to pay the manufacturer for the car. As this period comes to a close, dealers generally offer bigger discounts on the cars in stock.

Find your local main franchised dealer

Unfortunately there are a limited number of main franchised dealers who do not provide a good service and we have removed a number of these unreliable dealers from our service for failing to deliver cars either on time or at the agreed price. Buying through our service give you added peace of mind as you can avoid those suppliers.

UK new car brokers

There are a number of UK new car brokers – some purchase from main dealers and others directly from the manufacturer. The better brokers tend to offer customers a “value added service”, in that they spend more time talking to and listening to their customers. Auto ebid has relationships with a number of the more reliable UK new car brokers.

Unfortunately there are a number of brokers who do not provide a good service and we have removed a number of these unreliable brokers from our service for failing to deliver cars either on time or at the agreed price. Buying through our service give you added peace of mind as you can avoid those suppliers.

If you place an order through our service and would prefer not to purchase through a broker you can simply state “no brokers” in step 3 of placing your orders.

Internet dealers

There are numerous internet dealers who often offer good prices on vehicles. However it is difficult to know who has the best deal out there without searching them all individually. Autoebid does this for you as we have many registered suppliers who are internet dealers. Also, we often know the direct suppliers for internet dealers.

Unfortunately, there are a limited number of internet dealers who do not provide a good service and we have removed a number of these unreliable dealers from our service for failing to deliver cars either on time or at the agreed price. Buying through our service give you added peace of mind as you can avoid those suppliers.

Wholesalers

Wholesalers purchase vehicles in bulk and usually sell them on to car supermarkets and UK brokers at fantastically low prices. In some cases they are willing to supply directly to the public. Autoebid is the ideal medium for buyers to contact these elusive organisations and secure deals from them.

New car supermarkets

There are many car supermarkets now all over europe. Those located in the UK tend to purchase a large number of imported vehicles which are not always full UK specification. The prices they offer seem to offer fantastic savings against the UK list price however these models are often not to full UK specifications, will not have the full manufacturers warranty and the re sale value will be lower than a UK supplied car. When you come to re selling an imported car you are legally obliged to declare this and this can make selling it extremely difficult. Autoebid does not supply new vehicles to its customers using car supermarkets. All our new vehicles are supplied through UK main franchised dealers and are NOT new car imports, but may come via a broker. The key question to ask a supplier is if it’s a “UK supplied car”. All our new vehicles are supplied through UK main franchised dealers and are NOT new car imposts. Watch out for dealers telling you the car is a “UK specification” car as this only means it was ordered to the same specification as a uk car but could still be an import. The key question to ask a dealer is if it’s a “UK supplied car”.

UK leasing/contract hire

With personal contract plans (“pcps”) and leasing making up a very large part of the UK car buyers market, it is not surprising to see hundreds of advertisements in the back of motoring magazines for contract hire, lease purchase and pcps. Leasing provides an excellent way to manage future motoring costs.

Import brokers

There are a few UK and european import brokers. However it’s more difficult to know which of the brokers are reliable without independent information. These brokers simply purchase from european main dealers as well as some wholesalers in europe. Due to the current poor exchange rate between the euro and the pound, the savings which can be offered to UK buyers from import brokers are diminishing. Therefore we do not currently offer any import vehicles.

Commercial vehicles – van dealers

Commercial vehicles are available through UK main dealers, van brokers, wholesalers and vehicle contract companies. There are always a few organisations offering outstanding deals on commercial vehicles, however finding these companies can prove quite difficult.

New independent london broker, ballantyne brokers ltd., opens for business

Ballantyne brokers ltd., an independent london broker, announced it has started business. Founded by veteran london market brokers, ross ballantyne and richard spragg, the leadership team also includes david ledger, former aon benfield chairman and aon UK chief operating officer, who will be appointed non-executive chairman.

The team is already in discussion with ambitious individuals and broking teams and expects to announce new talent joining the team in the near future.

Richard spragg

Richard spragg commented: “consolidation amongst the big brokers, the hardening market and the impact of COVID are all combining to create client demand for an effective and viable alternative – which is what ballantyne is. Our commitment to investment in technology, combined with an exceptional team, will ensure we stand out in the marketplace and will be decisive as we drive the expansion of the business and our client base.”

In an interview, ballantyne said the broker will have a heavy focus on all terrorities with SME managing general agency program business, with a heavy focus on the U.S. And europe.

The broker will operate as an appointed representative of pioneer underwriting, which will allow it to access the lloyd’s market.

With 30 years’ experience in the london market, ross ballantyne began his career at minet before joining millers where he spent eight years in the programmes & facilities division before moving to rkharrison. He joined benfield in 2008 and, most recently, he was CEO of decus insurance brokers for more than six years.

New batch of qatari real estate brokers obtains licence

Doha: A new batch of licensed qatari real estate brokers took the legal oath in front of the real estate affairs committee at the ministry of justice. The batch consisted of 13 mediators, which raises the number of licensed brokers since the entry into force of the new law to more than 80.

The new batch comes within the framework of the implementation procedures of the provisions of the law. It pushes the real estate brokerage business towards an organized legal environment prepared to keep pace with the economic and urban renaissance witnessed by the country and the great expansion in the real estate sector in terms of re-configuring and to organise the real estate system to achieve the objectives of qatar national vision 2030.

This step comes within the ministry of justice’s efforts to reorganise the real estate brokerage profession and to work per the provisions of law no. 22 of 2017 to regulate real estate brokerage work to serve the national economy. It will also develop working mechanisms in the real estate market and qualify those who work in the mediation profession from the owners of offices and qatari mediators.

On this occasion, the assistant undersecretary for real estate registration and documentation affairs at the ministry of justice and head of the real estate affairs committee, saeed abdullah al suwaidi, said that the number of applicants to practice real estate brokerage is increasing.

He added that the real estate department is in charge of receiving and sorting applications and organising the required training courses in coordination with the training department at the legal and judicial studies center to ensure that the applicant meets all the professional and legal requirements.

This batch of licensed real estate brokers represents the third batch of new real estate brokers that are being prepared for licensing after the completion of the legal arrangements and requirements.

The real estate department has started organising specialised courses for brokers applying to practice the profession.

The ultimate guide to

The new zealand financial market

Anyone looking to trade on the new zealand financial market can make use of the many available online brokers and trading indices. Brokers operating in new zealand must also be authorised and submit to regulation by new zealand’s official financial regulatory body called the financial markets authority (FMA) .

The FMA started operation in 2011 after the financial markets bill was passed by the new zealand parliament as a response to the global financial crisis that caused many traders in new zealand to suffer losses. As a member of the international organisation of securities commissions (IOSCO) , the FMA was designed to operate under and enforce stricter rules and regulations for firms providing financial services and access to the financial markets in new zealand.

For equity traders, the major new zealand stock board is the NZX market which lists more than 200 companies. These include most of new zealand’s well-established businesses, as well as some overseas companies that together form the basis of new zealand’s economy. The NZSX is the primary stock index consisting of the largest 50 firms on the NZX market by market cap.

Those who plan on trading the new zealand dollar (NZD) should be aware a variety of factors that traditionally influence the value of that currency. For example, the price of oil and other relevant commodities, natural events like major earthquakes, the local housing market, trade tariffs and agreements, and risk aversion can all affect the NZD/USD exchange rate.

Trading in new zealand

Many online brokers provide a variety of accounts for people looking to trade in the new zealand financial market. Some of the main types of trading that takes place through online brokers are:

Forex trading: the forex market is the largest and most liquid financial market in the world, with forex brokers seeing a daily turnover of $5.1 trillion per day in april 2016 . The new zealand dollar was ranked 10 th among the most actively traded currencies by the BIS in april 2016, comprising around 2.1 percent of daily forex market turnover.

CFD trading: this involves operating in contracts for difference (cfds) consisting of derivative financial instruments that have their value determined by that of an underlying asset, which can be a currency pair, stock, stock index, commodity or other financial instrument. Read more about finding the best CFD broker .

Demo accounts: funded with virtual money, these accounts can be used to practice trading, test a strategy or check out a broker’s services and platform. Find out more on opening demo accounts here .

Islamic accounts: these are suitable for traders who wish to trade in an account that conforms to sharia law. Find out more on trading with an islamic account .

Opportunities of trading in new zealand

New zealand was ranked the top country when it comes to the ease of doing business by the world bank , so it offers a very favourable regulatory environment for companies and industry to operate in. The world bank also reports on the country’s variety of new business opportunities, as well as the availability of financing from local banks.

Furthermore, some significant regulatory changes on the horizon may affect how people trade in new zealand. The financial services legislation amendment bill of 2016 aims to upgrade the requirements of the financial advisers act of 2008. Once implemented by the new zealand parliament, these changes will introduce a new regulatory system and code of conduct for providing financial advice.

Challenges of trading in new zealand

Some of the biggest challenges to operating in any financial market involve learning its unique characteristics and market-moving factors. In the case of new zealand, the value of local stocks and its currency can be notably affected by geological and climate factors, as well as by overall risk aversion, thereby potentially increasing the risk of unanticipated market moves.

Prominent examples include the major canterbury earthquake that prompted $40 billion in reconstruction activity, as well as the decline seen in agricultural spending and production associated with a recent drought.

Summary

For those new to trading in new zealand, the FMA provides educational materials they can use to make better decisions about how to operate more securely and prudently in the financial markets.

In addition, by choosing to operate through an FMA regulated broker, a trader can have confidence that the broker’s transactions will be overseen by one of the world’s strictest financial regulators.

Attention real estate brokers: this new platform may re-shape your profession

2020 had been a tough year from all aspects, and at this point, it seems that 2021 is working tirelessly to catch up. Too many companies and too many fields were required to adapt to the ‘new normal’ and innovate their future with the hope of staying in business. New york city, which was the epicenter of the virus up until a few months ago, witnessed its shiniest star, the real estate market, taking a huge hit and failing to recover. The exodus from the city may now be over, but this real estate broker's heaven has still undergone a serious change.

One of the big questions that the coronavirus pandemic has raised in new york is whether the manhattan rental market can ever fully recover. While we begin to see a light at the end of the tunnel with lower prices and higher demand, innovation may be at hand to expedite the recovery.

The real estate market in the covid era is shifting.

Knock is an AI-based end-to-end leasing platform that automates the entire leasing process, from lead generation and self-touring to application & lease signing. The company pivoted its offering last august as covid continued to affect landlords and tenants. “we are currently working with some of the largest landlords of buildings across manhattan, brooklyn, queens, and the bronx’’, says erez cohen, co-founder & CEO. “our platform has facilitated thousands of self-tours over the past few months.”

Cohen and co-founder and CTO guy yoshpe, both served in the IDF’s prestigious intelligence corps unit 8200 and later in prominent cyber-security companies.

When cohen moved to NY as part of his previous job, he was surprised by what he describes as “the outdated NYC leasing process:” “everyone hates searching for an apartment, and the current process especially does not meet millennial and gen Z expectations of an on-demand and empowering experience, nor does it utilize technology to remove the enormous amount of friction throughout the process.”

He realized that the residential real-estate-rental process is extremely inefficient and takes much longer than it should. “why can’t you get off an uber in the west village, tour 30 units in a few hours with no preparation beforehand, and sign a lease, all in the same day?”

“landlords and property managers are wasting $20B annually on leasing inefficiency".

Shortly afterward, this idea became a vision and the knock founders decided to use their substantial security backgrounds and technological skills to turn this vision into a reality; little did they know what was in store for the city and the world. When covid-19 hit, they realized their vision should be pivoted to create a full digital leasing solution with full automation of every component of the residential leasing process.

“landlords and property managers are wasting $20B annually on leasing inefficiency, including long vacancy periods, inefficient agent costs, time-consuming scheduling and touring. This inefficiency is amplified by today’s circumstances. ‘’it takes days to bring a lead into a unit,” they claim. “about 30% of all inquiry emails and scheduling requests do not receive a response. The other 70% often receive a response days later. In addition, there is no visibility, no analytics, and no feedback to learn from and optimize the process.’’

They’ve noticed that useful information for landlords, such as costs of visits, the demographics of potential customers, etc. Is not available. “landlords are forced to rely on their agents to do their job, pay high broker fees or leasing officers’ salaries, and suffer from long days that the unit is on the market due to the friction in the process,” cohen and yoshpe insist. “for the renters, the automation value is obvious. Most of us have been frustrated due to the overwhelming friction in the rental process. Renters are always waiting for the agent to respond, arrive, and process applications.” with the covid pandemic, in-person showings may be one more aspect that leaves renters behind.

"self-touring technology that enables verified visitors to tour apartments on their own, in person, . [+] without scheduling, and without an agent on-site." knock

The landlords do not have to work with them, at least not at this point. “but they do have the option to work with us directly, in the same way, they would work with traditional brokerages. Aside from the increased efficiency, visibility, and fewer days on the market, an automated platform charges much less than a traditional broker and can save landlords hundreds of thousands of dollars a year.”

The israeli entrepreneurs have built a tailored solution to replace each element of the leasing process. Each step has its own unique proprietary technology that brings efficiency to each element. “when we add a new unit, we use live big-data of relevant recent transactions to evaluate the most accurate rent pricing for the unit.” following that, the discovery process is in charge of lead generation using syndication technology that syncs knock listings to every existing 3rd party service, including streeteasy, zillow, apartments.Com, renthop, craigslist, facebook, and more, as well as an in-app search engine. Today, traditional brokers do this manually.

When a potential renter from any listing service sends an inquiry, the AI leasing bot, which, in the spirit of siri and alexa, is named sharon, responds to the inquiries within seconds and follows up every single lead throughout the leasing funnel, 24/7.

The potential renter can immediately check out the apt. “that is why we created self-touring technology that enables verified visitors to tour apartments on their own, in person, without scheduling, and without an agent on-site. While renters tour on their own, we have security measures in place to ensure we know who is in the building and exactly when they are in the apartments.”

For screening and lease signing, the system verifies users prior to touring. “if they want to apply for the unit, the platform facilitates the application process, from credit score to a background check and lease signing, including a security deposit and first month’s rent.

The real estate market in the covid era is already shifting. Leases are now being signed digitally, payments are online, and video tours are becoming more relevant. Cohen and yoshpe believe that there is no reason to stop there. All major cities are experiencing record-high vacancy rates, and the friction in the process is similar throughout cities in the US, as well as outside of the US. “our technology assists landlords and tenants and can make a broker's job much easier and more efficient. Any industry that has not been completely disrupted needs to adopt technology to stay relevant. Residential leasing is no different. Brokers”, they insist, “need to reinvent themselves to stay relevant in this market. Unfortunately, we haven’t seen them make that shift yet, which is why we have been targeting directly to landlords.”
