Hi,SKerinas

Im kind of new in this site and been peeping on the discussions and think you guys are awesome,I'm legible for a loan and would want to buy a car and start a car hire business is anyone out there in this business who can give some insight on this,and let me know if it would be a good/bad decision?




Alrighty then!

Car hire in terms of you buy a can and give it to some guys to be giving you some fixed amount per month?

Its better you take that money and throw it down a toilet. At least that way youll have no stress knowing that your money is gone. Almost all the these car hire firms are crooked,I can tell you cause ive been there. Look for a previous discussion which talked of this extensively.


Be greedy when others are fearful,be fearful when others are greedy.

thanks guys

@ Pablo,thanks I've checked on the previous posts they've got quite some info Im still checking on them out will make up my mind,but im still taking your advice seriously.

@ Myks,I wonder if you've checked on these posts too,give me your opinion after this my emails dennis.njuguna@gmail.com

Thanks again guys.


Alrighty then!

@ Andycapp thanks for the enlightenment on Thames Exec. I always thought they were reliable.... esp after advertising here on SK.

Another one to avoid is Frank Travel .. based at Madaraka shops.... They were good to me for 3months.... then after that..... no money,excuses,excuses,excuses.... I had to pull a 'clande' move to get my car back.



..the queens language came with a ship and some of us.... picked the wrong container.

The buisness is best with u manging it yourself ie buy your car get the clients yourself altenatively dont give your car full time get someone in the buisness and give your car when a job comes up eg I have a client who needs the car for three weeks your middle man calls you up informs you the same you deliver the car you get paid upfront the middle man gets a commision of 500 a day so if the car goes for 21 days client pays 3000 per day and signs contarct as well as give you his location and id he pays 63000 you pay the middle man 10500 and you pocket the rest.


jnn

A friend of mine had bought two cars... they were good the first three months. after that,drama started. she managed to get one. the other one,she had to involve Kingori Mwangi's boys to get it!!! Infact,she is selling it off.

I wouldnt touch it with a long long looooooong stick!

Some deals are like glass. Sometimes it's better to leave them broken than try to hurt yourself putting it back together.

leona,what are these challenges here and there when you are the manager of the car?


When the power of love overcomes the love of power,the world will know peace.

@harrydre,Its solely you and the car,so if you give out the car,you have to be on toes coz if something happens the client will definately call you up regardless of the time. At times,there is no steady business for a number of days in a month(like now when the economy is down) so you cannot really put all your financial hopes in the car. Then there is also the risk of hooking up with the wrong middlemen to source clients for you,they tend to bring in all manner of clients to you and insisting they know them well then you learn this were just lies after something has happened to your car! But all in all,if you get clients who want to hire the car on long term basis,it's less strenous and good for the pocket.

Advice is what we ask for when we already know the answer but wish we didn't..

@Leona

Are you in this business and if you are,are you managing it yourself? .

@Myks

Every business has its own risks. I think a car hire business would be better if you manage for yourself.
