Advent Resources: product details

Advent Resources, based in Fort Worth, Texas, has served dealers for more than 30 years. Advent Advantage is its connected sales platform covering identity verification, desking, trade-ins, lender approvals, F&I, e-signing, CRM and compliance in one flow from first contact to funding.

The company says it cuts transaction time and integrates with the dealership's DMS, CRM and digital retailing partners. It handles deals from lead to funding.

A finance director should ask which lenders are connected, how forms stay current by state and lender, how identity and OFAC checks are logged and what the DMS handoff looks like at funding. Request a reference from a store with the same DMS.
