Howard N Braunstein
Auto Broker
After owning and operating 3 Franchised Automobile Dealerships and 1 Powersports Dealership in the Catskill Mountains of NY for over 30 years, I sold my businesses and properties in NY and relocated to Punta Gorda, Florida.
However, I never stopped arranging car deals for clients after I retired from my dealership. I continued to do what got me excited to be in the business over 30 years ago- helping people get a great deal on their next car or truck.
Today, utilizing relationships that I made long ago with other dealers in my industry, I continue to help my clients arrange purchase or lease new cars acting as a “broker” or outside sales agent for my preferred dealerships and assisting my clients to get better deals than they would if they went into a dealership on their own!
Because I spent over 30 years as a dealer and competed with all types of dealerships(both good and bad) I understand the business and use my strong relationships with good dealers to help my clients get their best deal.
I help my customers navigate this difficult market with sound advice and fair deals. I am no longer working for the manufacturer as a representative and I have no affiliation with any brands- so I can always let the client’s most important criteria drive the process and can make deals on most every brand, either domestic or foreign.
While I specialize in new cars, I also have over 30 years experience buying and selling high quality used vehicles. I can often help my clients find great used cars for them, their friends, or family.
