What DriveHaus is and how it works
DriveHaus is where people in the Philippines buy and sell vehicles directly with each other, with the safety rails a Facebook post never gives you.
Who is on the platform
- Buyers browse, save vehicles, chat with sellers and make offers. Buying is free.
- Sellers list vehicles with photos and full specs. Every listing is checked by the team before it goes live.
- Mechanics are independent professionals who inspect a vehicle on request and publish a report on the listing.
- The DriveHaus team approves listings, verifies identities, assigns inspections and settles disputes.
Where the money goes
- Listing is free. Chatting is free. Making and receiving offers is free.
- When a vehicle sells to a DriveHaus buyer, the seller pays a small success fee (a percentage of the sale price, shown on the pricing page). That is what keeps the lights on.
- An inspection is optional and paid by whoever requests it (usually the seller, to make the listing more trustworthy).
What makes a listing trustworthy
- A verified seller badge means we have checked a government ID and a selfie.
- An Inspected badge means an independent mechanic went through our 22-point checklist and the report is on the listing.
- Every message and offer stays in DriveHaus, so if something goes wrong there is a record.
