Automobile Fraud: 10.13.1.3.2 Dealer assets on the premises
Even low-end used car dealerships that do not have a prosperous appearance often have substantial assets. In particular, they often have substantial amounts of cash going through the dealership every month. On any given day, the dealership will have some cash on hand from customers who have paid for repairs or made car payments in person. The dealer may also have real estate, or personal property such as computers and office furniture, that is subject to execution. Even a leasehold interest in real estate may have value.
