2. About the Company
Buy Direct Auto Broker Inc. is a company organized under the laws of Canada, with its principal place of business at the following address:
Buy Direct Auto Broker Inc.
32 Carleton Trail, Beeton, ON L0G 1A0, Canada
We operate as an independent vehicle broker. Unlike a dealership, we do not sell vehicles directly from an inventory. Instead, we act on behalf of the buyer to locate, verify, negotiate, and coordinate the purchase of vehicles, and we assist with financing, trade-ins, and delivery as part of a complete brokerage service.
Because we are a broker and not a dealership, we may not be able to control every aspect of a transaction, including the condition of a vehicle or the availability of inventory. We will, however, keep you informed of material details as they arise and use reasonable efforts to facilitate a smooth transaction on your behalf.
3. Definitions

- Company, we, us, and our refer to Buy Direct Auto Broker Inc., doing business as DirectAuto.

4. Eligibility
To use our website and services, you must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract. By using the website, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements.
Our services are currently available to residents of Canada and the United States. If you are located outside these regions and wish to use our services, please contact us to confirm whether we can assist you. You are responsible for ensuring that your use of the website and services complies with all applicable laws in your jurisdiction.
5. Our Services
DirectAuto provides the following services to customers seeking to purchase a vehicle.
- Vehicle sourcing, including searching a nationwide network of dealers, private listings, and auction sources.
- Vehicle verification, including review of history, condition, and service records where available.
- Price negotiation on your behalf with sellers and dealers.
- Financing coordination through a network of third party lenders.
- Trade-in valuation and coordination.
- Paperwork handling and delivery coordination.
We act as an intermediary and facilitator in these transactions. We do not own the vehicles we source, and the final purchase agreement for any vehicle is between you and the selling party, subject to the specific terms of that transaction.
The services we arrange may involve third party providers, including lenders, insurers, transport companies, and inspection services. Those providers are independent parties, and any engagement with them is governed by their own terms and conditions. We facilitate introductions to these providers but do not control their conduct, their pricing, or the quality of their services.
6. Vehicle Sourcing and Purchase Process
When you submit a quote request, we use the information you provide to search for vehicles that match your stated requirements. We will present you with one or more options and, with your approval, proceed to verify and negotiate on your behalf.
You are responsible for reviewing all details of any vehicle before you commit to a purchase, including price, condition, history, and financing terms. While we make reasonable efforts to verify information provided by sellers, we do not guarantee the accuracy or completeness of third party listings, and you are encouraged to conduct your own review and, where practical, an independent inspection.
A binding purchase is formed only when you execute a purchase agreement with the selling party. Until that point, any quote, price, or option we present is an estimate and is subject to change based on availability, seller terms, and market conditions.
Title to and registration of any vehicle purchased through our services will be handled in accordance with the laws of your jurisdiction and the terms of the purchase agreement. We can assist with this process, but you remain responsible for completing any registration, insurance, and licensing requirements that apply to you before you take delivery of a vehicle.
7. Pricing and Fees
We charge a single, clearly stated broker fee for our services. This fee is disclosed to you before you commit to a transaction and is separate from the price of the vehicle, taxes, registration fees, and any financing costs charged by third parties.
Our broker fee is not tied to a commission on the purchase price, which means our incentive is aligned with finding you the best value. All additional costs associated with a vehicle purchase, including taxes, licensing, delivery, and lender fees, are your responsibility unless we state otherwise in writing.
We will provide a clear breakdown of all fees and costs before you finalize any purchase. If any cost changes during the transaction, we will notify you and obtain your approval before proceeding.
Our broker fee is generally non-refundable once the services have been performed. If we are unable to complete the services you requested through no fault of your own, we will discuss a fair resolution with you. Any deposit toward a vehicle purchase is subject to the refund terms set out in your purchase agreement with the selling party.
8. Payment Terms
Payment for our broker fee is due as set out in the written agreement or invoice we provide to you. We may request a deposit toward certain services or toward the purchase of a vehicle, which will be clearly described before you are asked to pay.
Payments for vehicles are made directly to the selling party or through an agreed third party escrow or financing arrangement, unless we instruct otherwise. We are not responsible for the processing of third party payments, including lender disbursements, and any disputes regarding such payments must be resolved with the relevant third party.
If you fail to pay amounts owed under these terms, we may suspend or terminate the services and pursue any remedies available to us under applicable law.
