Who can buy at IAA North Hollywood
Each IAA listing shows who may bid on it. Salvage and other branded-title vehicles are often limited to licensed buyers such as dealers and dismantlers; some lots are open to the public; and a broker can bid for unlicensed buyers on more. See ways to buy at IAA.
Instructor note from Garrett Eddings: Like Copart, IAA draws a lot of my introductory students who want to start flipping cars. California treats buying and reselling vehicles for profit as dealing, which requires a dealer license. Read who can buy at IAA and what California law says before you register.
Before you bid at IAA North Hollywood
- Read the listing. Check photos, the damage and loss type, the title type, and whether the vehicle starts or runs.
- Price the whole deal. Your bid plus IAA's buyer fees, any broker fee, transport from North Hollywood and repairs. See what a car really costs at auction.
- Plan pickup. IAA sets a pickup deadline after payment and charges storage once it passes; confirm it on the listing.
- Know the title. A salvage vehicle can't be driven in California until it is revived through DMV. See salvage titles.
