bank got loan them money for cashflow, thats why they can buy cars in cash, and used car is a high profit margin business

each car they can earn rm10k at least, the least also rm5k per car for those hot models

recon cars even more untung

Those that say high profit margin, risk is also high and some of those margins need to pay for security and insurance of all those cars from damage fire stolen etc while in their care and still unsold.

Yes and also buying a car of someone who still under lon. You gotta settle the full amount with the bank even before it can be transferred to your company/name... These are risks.

I imagine a mechanic who really knows abt the car can start like this. Get a car that seemingly has expensive problem that owner wants to get rid of cheaply, fix the part cheaply n sell for high profit, like flipping a foreclosure.

Mechanic has less risk and less working cap to entry...
You will eventually hire your own handy man to fix these cars to last for few months...
