I got got the opportunity to buy a car at my shop the owner doesn’t want any more. All legal, that was my first concern as he didn’t have the title but did have copies of his name and vin for the registration. This helps much!
Is this the same for every state ? I live in Philadelphia Pennsylvania and found a seller with 18 to 25 or more cars with no titles there's mostly Nissan Maxima's a few Altima's and a couple other ones but there 2010-2012 to 2014 if you could let me know what you think or recommend it be appreciated thanks I hope to hear from you with good advice bc the price for a 2012 Maxima with 58k miles on it full price says 989$ and like I said he has 18-25+ very nice very clean cars I hope there's something you could recommend
If I was to buy a car from someone who lost the pinkslip and I turned these in would I be able to insure it the car until the pinkslip came in or would I have to wait?

Helllo i love your informative video! I have a big question though . I bought a Honda Accord he gave me the pink slip but i didnt have the time to change it to my name , recently got my car broken into and they took the pink slip .i can't get a hold of the owner what so ever and im just debating what i should do ? I went to the dmv but they told me i have to get the signature fron the previous owner but like i said he changed # and i can't seem to get a hold of him . Please any recommendations, thank you!
I just bought a car with only bill of sale and registration, is that enough to take it to the dmv or will I have to print out all these documents and go have the old owner sign them too
so after me and the seller finish filling out all the forms i would have to go to an tag agency give them the documents and id eventually get the lost title new and under my name ?
the real question would be to find out if he owns the vehicle, but obviously doesnt if he has a bill of sale for it. probably bought it off someone and only had the bill of sale and couldn't get the title for it so pawning it off. it really depends. I would ask aaa if you have them. they may or may not be able to get you a title. I would say ask before you male any decision. hope this helps in your decision making ✌
My girl is giving me her 2002 ford ranger she lost the title . Can I review the necessary papers. I have filled out in front of me (#1 notice of release/transfer of liability has bill of sale information on it, #2 application for duplicate / transfer of title. ) am I missing the last piece ?
Hi, I sold a car in June of this year to a gal with a bill of sale and a release of liability, pink was absent as I had forgotten it. Fast forward to two days ago the girl's boyfriend texts me asking for pink slip right before the smog certificate expires. Now I am panicking looking for the pink slip that I had less than a week ago is missing. This form is the correct option and would be a stand in for transfer of title so smog would not expire, correct? I already paid their registration for them so I do not want to pay any more money for a car that is not mine any longer. I still have my registration card and the stub of the release of liability, they said DMV would not let them file any of the other paperwork without the pink, would that be correct?
Help, my little brother purchased his first car after he turned 18. The seller did not have any paperwork and he was left with a shitty bill of sale from a company that doesn’t even exist. The seller was not the original owner and now no registration place can help out. We called the police and it is not stolen nor is there a lien against the car. What would be the best way to process this situation in California?
glad your little brother got a car but not the best of situations to be in. I would suggest going to aaa auto if you have them since it is easy to get in and out with their dmv services to see what they can do to help you or go to dmv to see what they can do. you wont be able to do much if the person you got it from gave you a faulty bill of sale. you may be stuck with a car you cant get registered worst case scenario
How much I make the check for to pay the Dmv fee. I didn’t know there was a fee. They send me back my application with a letter requesting to fill out new tittle transfer application and send a check.
I just bought a car a month ago & I have a buyer but I haven’t registered it. So it’s basically under the past owners name still. What can I do? I’m in California. Do I have to register the car to sell it?
great question. all you need to do is sign the car over to the person who wants to buy it. write up a bill of sale and fill out dmv form (reg 227), turn it in and you are free and clear. let me know if you have any further questions
confused on my situation. my friend bought a car from a small dealership that closed down two months after he paid cash for the vehicle. never received his title. (assuming the dealership never paid off his lender) he had to go back to his country and sold me the car. (told me I could take it apart and sell it for parts.) I would prefer to drive it since its a nice working newer car. would I go on about it this way in the video? I am still in contact with hi but he is no longer in the states.
I would fill out this paperwork and have your friend fill his portion of the information out as well. if anything, I would get in contact with the dmv when they open back up. it's a strange situation. you should be able to get it cleared up. male sure you have a bill of sale between you and your friend saying that he sold you the vehicle and that you didnt have the title.
What if I bought a vehicle with only a bill of sale. Now, two years later. I’m trying to register the vehicle. Old owner purchased with a bill of sale as well. They’re both long gone now.
I’m in California. My car is older than 15 years old . U think I can sell it with just a bill of sale and a application for dubplicate or transfer of title??!!!
Thank you for the invaluable information. If the car is older than 10 years (1993) could a DMV Bill of Sale be filled out instead of the REG 262 document?
you will still need to fill out this form in order to transfer the vehicle if you do not have the title to sign and hand over. thank you soo much for the feedback. I appreciate it 😁😁
I want to buy a 96 accord, but the owner says he lost the title, he has the registration and a paper from the insurance How can I make sure that it's the owner selling car ? What will be needed in order for me to get the new title?
the person i bought my car from gave me the application for duplicate and bill of sale signed but no statement of facts or release of liability. what should i do?
you will need the statement of facts for sure so I would get that form, complete it and turn it in. the release of liability is for the seller so dont worry about that
Hi great video by the way, I am getting a car and the owner does not have a title, is there any way I can make sure it’s the owner that’s selling me the car, and if there is any way of making sure the title is not a salvage one
the best way would be to go to the dmv or aaa to verify the car is free and clear to be transferred by the person you are planning to purchase it from. also check carfax and that will give you better insight. I've bought a lot of cars without titles, just have to take precautions as with any purchase.
A bit late but can I sell my car using this method when my car hasn’t been registered yet? I bought my vehicle last month and realized I didn’t need it as I got into a school program online and I don’t make enough money for insurance/gas.
no problem at all. you have the title right? you dont need to worry about this info because all you need to do is sign the title and file the release of liability online. its straight forward for you unless you dont have the title
So my questions is ...I was going too buy a car from my cousin ..we filled out the car tittle and we both signed it ..but I never actually went too the dmv to put the car under my name ..So now their is a change of plans and another person is buying the car ..but the car title has my signature....what can I do?
What if I can't get a hold of the previous owner to sign the paperwork?? I lost the original title and can't find him to sihn the paper work.. Please reply I would appreciate it
How long would it take for the information to go through? Could I drive up, fill out the papers with the owner, buy the car, head home with it, and drop off the papers at my DMV?
I would go to the dmv with the seller and fill out and turn in the forms there. it is for your security so that you dont get screwed over. this is what I would do. if everything works out, the dmv will send you the new title in your name with 2-4 weeks. hope you get it all worked out👍
Ok what if the car hasn’t been registered since 1987 and it’s a lost title. I’m in CA and I’m wondering what happens after we get the form filled out and they still say they can’t find any records of the car since it’s been so long
I got a great deal on a car recently. Confused though because within the last 3 months I see signatures from 3 different owners. This car literally got tossed around. Anyway the last owner gave me all the things but the only real thing I signed was a receipt. The pink is filled out from three owners ago, the bill of sale is fron the owner I just bought is from two owners ago. I feel like something is really messed up here. I have all documents but idk what to say at the DMV.
Daily Driver when i looked on the DMV website it says that the vessel/vehicle reassignment form is not available online since its printed on security paper. am i looking at the right form? what form number is it exaclty? thank you in advance!
@@DaylyDriverDayly this is what is says when i look up the form "The Vehicle/Vessel Transfer and Reassignment Form (REG 262) is a single-page multipurpose form that combines odometer disclosure, bill of sale, and power of attorney. The REG 262 is not available online because it is printed on security paper, which makes it compliant with federal odometer disclosure regulations. If you do not need to disclose the odometer reading, you may download and print a Bill of Sale REG 135 (PDF) form or a Power of Attorney REG 260 (PDF) form." so do we have to wait for the form to be mailed in?

Hello I have a situation where a car was given to me ,but I never regsitered it under my name. I want to sell it now... Can I sell it without registering it under my name ? Would this pink slip be the right paper to fill out? How would I get ahold of this form?
good question. do you not have the original title that was given to you when you received the car? if not, you will need to contact the person that gave you the car and you and that person will fill these forms out. you can obtain them off of the dmv website. let me know if you have any further questions. I'm happy to help
Very useful and helpful video, thank you! I'm confused because the DMV website states "Statement of Facts (REG 256) form Used when the vehicle is obtained from a family member". The new owner (buyer) completes the REG 256." So is this form not necessary if you sell to a non-family member? Just to clarify, I as seller will sign the REG 227 (selling without original title) and hand it over to buyer (my boyfriend's aunt) w/smog certificate to file with DMV? I know that I can file the Notice of Transfer & Release of Liability online after.
thank you very much. to answer your question, whether you are buying or selling a car without a title you are going to have to fill out a statement of facts no matter the situation

hi do you have a recommendation for a title not sign by the 0wner but the person who sold me the car is not the owner, i did a title search , vin number search seem to not show any red flags but the owner is here that is the red flag but i have title
The paperwork can be turned in by either the seller or new owner as long as it gets turned in. You as the seller will have to fill out some portions of the paperwork needless. Hope this answers your question. Thanks for the response.
I might not get an answer but, If I bought the car from the buyer(basically Title lost owner sells to buyer, he sells it to me). Do I have to get the buyer to sign REG227 or the original owner? The buyer did get the seller to sign REG227 but for sure the DMV lady was so rushed she forgot to tell me this part and I have absolutely no clue and I do not want to go to the DMV more than 3-4 times for a piece of paper I can print out.
hi so i recently bought this car and thought i was gonna keep it but recently decided I want to sell it. I’ve only had it for about a month and have a buyer that’s cash ready. The title hasn’t came in the mail yet from when i bought it. Can i do what the video shows?
yes you can. make up a bill of sale, and have the title transferred into the buyers name. if the title is being sent to you already you can still have it transferred to the new owner
bought a car from a friend he works for a tow yard car was a lien sale it was transferred into his name but didn't finish with vin verify an smog would it be the same forms as the video ??
I am looking to buy a car here in California and ship it to Philadelphia to do my paperwork and tittle transfer there. Due to COVID, the dmv of California is requiring tittle tranfers to be done online. The seller claims he’s done his tittle transfer online about 2 weeks ago and still hasn’t received the tittle under his name. My first concern is that i will be needing the tittle because i want to have the vehicle shipped to Philadelphia, also registered and tittled in Philadelphia, So will the REG 277 form help with that or is there a specific way i need to go about handling this situation? Or do We need to file a specific form from the Pennsylvania Dmv? My second and last concern is since he does not have the tittle how can i verify that the car is his? Since he will be signing the REG 277 form to me Thank you
the best advice I could give you would be to go to aaa if you or the seller has it, or dmv to verify the title is being transferred to him and ask them what you need to do in order to properly transfer the title into your name and have it registered in another state. i am not familiar with Pennsylvania state laws in regards to this. I would contact Pennsylvania state dmv or aaa office as well to get more information regarding your situation. wish I could help out more. best of luck and hope you get it worked out
Hi I’m in Georgia I bought a car with a Lien from a private seller for 1600. He said it was 1100 to pay of the loan. And he said he paid of the loan. I got the bill of sale but still don’t have the title . What do I do moving forward?
that's a touchy situation because you dont have the payoff paperwork showing how much exactly is owed on the lien in order to transfer the title into your name do you? secondly, there could be multiple liens on the car or a lot more money owed on the lien than what the seller told you. if I were you I would go to your local dmv office to find out more information regarding the vehicle lien status because they will be able to provide you more information than I can give you at this point. I hope this helps you out a bit. sorry I cant give you more information. nest of luck. I hope you can get the title to the car👌👌
then you need to get a bi of sale. getting a bill of sale is very important any and every time you buy or sell a vehicle. it will save you in situations like you are in where you now need to back track in order to get a bill of sale.
Ok my friend sold me a Honda civic and sent the upper part of the pink slip for the name transfer to the dmv. I no longer want the car and I want to resell it in hopes to get my money back. The title Is filled up with my friends name and mine. Can I sell it as is with the same pink slip or do I have to go to the dmv and get this slip?
you need the dmv reg form 262 filled out by you and the seller of the vehicle. a bill of sale is good but you need reg 262 in order to transfer the title into your name as well as a current smog certificate done within the last 90 days. release of interest is for the seller

I'm sure they are the same or similar forms for Minnesota. make a bill of sale for you and the buyer of the vehicle. the forms can be printed off of the mn.gov website for the paperwork needed. just fill out the application for a new title and transfer of ownership that the new owner will mail in since everything is closed right now. you and the new owner will need to fill that paperwork out
Hey im trying to buy a used 96 honda accord. The owner says he lost the title/pink slip , but has the registration and says he has s paper from the insurance company that is almost consider as a pink slip, its under hes name. Is that true ? Is that valid? What forms do i need to transfer the car to my name? How do i check if everything is legit ? And what forms do i need to fill out ? Does the seller need to turn in the forms,? The statement and facts does the owner fill it out and turn into the dmv or can just have him sing it and i turn it in my self at the dmv? Or can i have the seller fill in his information with his signature and i myself turn in the formsas at the dmv ?
it would be best to go together incase there is something that was a portion not signed by one of the parties in the transaction. otherwise, I'd suggest the seller take the information

Since the car is going to be transferred out of state, you will need to check with Nevada state requirements on transferring the vehicle to your son. You can check the Nevada dmv website dmvnv.com Thanks for reaching out and hope this helps.
Hi. Question. My uncle past away. My cousin, his daughter, gave me the property of the house with 2 RV's. I have no title, but the last owner was my uncle. Do I put his name or just put mine since it was given to me as a gift by my cousin?

Visit tag office. things change it should be possible if it was possible in the past just make sure you bring a credit card. Different state different ways but the meaning stays the same. Might be same maybe easier.
Hi, thank you so much for your video. It is super helpful. Regarding to transfer of ownership, I have a question. I started the process of transfer of ownership last August. According to DMV's request, I already paid tax and mailed the pink-slip to the address which DMV requested to me a month ago. At that time, I got a notification from mail company showing that the mail was delivered to the address. However, the DMV system continuously shows "they are waiting for the pink-slip". Honestly, at this point, I believe they lost my document. In this situation, could you let me know what I should do to solve the issue and complete the transfer of ownership successfully? Do I have to apply for duplicate or paperless title with REG 227B form ?
I'm so happy rn and thanks to Cyber Credible it was difficult filling out my car title I just got a Mercedes for the dealership and they left me to fill everything without experience...
Mario Alvarez you would just fill out the release of liability. You can go to the DMV to get the paper, but if I were you I would just go to the DMV website and fill out the form there
Great video. My father is currently in a nursing home and I have his truck but cannot find title. He is registered at my home address for his dmv records. Would I be able to complete the transfer process without him having to go into the dmv and would I be able to obtain a new pink slip at this address without him going into dmv?
Do you need to send a check when mailing all the docs, also can I as the owner fill out my part and have the buyer fill out there part and mail it with a check.
You can't send a personal check. It needs to be a cashiers check or money order. Yes you can mail the payment with the information but again it needs to be a cashiers check or money order.
Hi I've a question.. 2 weeks ago to date I bought a car from a neighbor that buys and sells car from auctions. He hasn't give me the car title or ANY paperwork of the car so I can go register it cause supposedly they haven't gave it to him. I already did a smog check on the car and my dmv appointment is this Monday and I'm afraid that I will go to the dmv and come empty handed. I keep asking and asking him when is he gonna provide me with any kind of documentation for the car but I don't wanna be so hard and I don't wanna break up this cool "neighbor bond" lol. He did just gave me an invoice/receipt when I bought the car. So my question is, when I go to the dmv and take the smog check certificate(it passed) and the invoice he gave me(he put all his info in it) will I be able to put the car under my name?
as long as you have a bill of sale for the vehicle and a smog certificate which he has given you than you should be ready for the dmv. they should be able to get it squared away with you. ask your neighbor for the auction paperwork that he was given from where he bought the car.
Hi I have a question, I bought a truck but the person that had the truck never registered and he bought from the auction can I still get a tittle for the truck?
great question and thanks for asking. yes you can still get the title for the vehicle, however, it has to have the signed paperwork that came from the auction and from the person you purchased it from. once you have that paperwork you can take it or mail it into the dmv (easier to go through aaa if you have them) and get the title transferred into your name. you also need the current smog certification. hope this helps👌

This form is the correct option and would be a stand in for transfer of title so smog would not expire, correct? I already paid their registration for them so I do not want to pay any more money for a car that is not mine any longer. I still have my registration card and the stub of the release of liability, they said DMV would not let them file any of the other paperwork without the pink, would that be correct?
Help, my little brother purchased his first car after he turned 18. The seller did not have any paperwork and he was left with a shitty bill of sale from a company that doesn’t even exist. The seller was not the original owner and now no registration place can help out. We called the police and it is not stolen nor is there a lien against the car.
What would be the best way to process this situation in California?
glad your little brother got a car but not the best of situations to be in. I would suggest going to aaa auto if you have them since it is easy to get in and out with their dmv services to see what they can do to help you or go to dmv to see what they can do. you wont be able to do much if the person you got it from gave you a faulty bill of sale. you may be stuck with a car you cant get registered worst case scenario
How much I make the check for to pay the Dmv fee. I didn’t know there was a fee. They send me back my application with a letter requesting to fill out new tittle transfer application and send a check.
I just bought a car a month ago & I have a buyer but I haven’t registered it. So it’s basically under the past owners name still. What can I do? I’m in California. Do I have to register the car to sell it?
great question. all you need to do is sign the car over to the person who wants to buy it. write up a bill of sale and fill out dmv form (reg 227), turn it in and you are free and clear. let me know if you have any further questions
confused on my situation. my friend bought a car from a small dealership that closed down two months after he paid cash for the vehicle. never received his title. (assuming the dealership never paid off his lender) he had to go back to his country and sold me the car. (told me I could take it apart and sell it for parts.) I would prefer to drive it since its a nice working newer car. would I go on about it this way in the video? I am still in contact with hi but he is no longer in the states.
I would fill out this paperwork and have your friend fill his portion of the information out as well. if anything, I would get in contact with the dmv when they open back up. it's a strange situation. you should be able to get it cleared up. male sure you have a bill of sale between you and your friend saying that he sold you the vehicle and that you didnt have the title.
Going to follow. Thank you so much!
you are welcome. glad the video helped. thanks for the comment
what is the vehicle doesnt have a license plate what do you right in that box then?
What if I bought a vehicle with only a bill of sale. Now, two years later. I’m trying to register the vehicle. Old owner purchased with a bill of sale as well. They’re both long gone now.
What forms do l need as a buyer?
I’m in California. My car is older than 15 years old . U think I can sell it with just a bill of sale and a application for dubplicate or transfer of title??!!!
Thank you for the invaluable information. If the car is older than 10 years (1993) could a DMV Bill of Sale be filled out instead of the REG 262 document?
you will still need to fill out this form in order to transfer the vehicle if you do not have the title to sign and hand over. thank you soo much for the feedback. I appreciate it 😁😁
Daily Driver alrighty, thank you so much.
@@digitalhindsight9822 you are very welcome. let me know if you have any other questions. glad to help with what i can
If you aren't purchasing from a family member do you still complete the statement of facts form?
I want to buy a 96 accord,
but the owner says he lost the title, he has the registration and a paper from the insurance
How can I make sure that it's the owner selling car ?
What will be needed in order for me to get the new title?
Where do I get that form from
You use to be able to get it off the device website if I'm not mistaken. Not sure you can anymore
Can you cancel this process once filed ?
the person i bought my car from gave me the application for duplicate and bill of sale signed but no statement of facts or release of liability. what should i do?
you will need the statement of facts for sure so I would get that form, complete it and turn it in. the release of liability is for the seller so dont worry about that
Hi great video by the way, I am getting a car and the owner does not have a title, is there any way I can make sure it’s the owner that’s selling me the car, and if there is any way of making sure the title is not a salvage one
the best way would be to go to the dmv or aaa to verify the car is free and clear to be transferred by the person you are planning to purchase it from. also check carfax and that will give you better insight. I've bought a lot of cars without titles, just have to take precautions as with any purchase.
Can I do this in California if im flipping cars from the auction ?
A bit late but can I sell my car using this method when my car hasn’t been registered yet? I bought my vehicle last month and realized I didn’t need it as I got into a school program online and I don’t make enough money for insurance/gas.
no problem at all. you have the title right? you dont need to worry about this info because all you need to do is sign the title and file the release of liability online. its straight forward for you unless you dont have the title
So my questions is ...I was going too buy a car from my cousin ..we filled out the car tittle and we both signed it ..but I never actually went too the dmv to put the car under my name ..So now their is a change of plans and another person is buying the car ..but the car title has my signature....what can I do?
great question! I suggest bringing the buyer to the dmv or aaa and have the title transferred there. it's very simple.
Go there to tag office and tell them. Easy fix.
What if I can't get a hold of the previous owner to sign the paperwork?? I lost the original title and can't find him to sihn the paper work.. Please reply I would appreciate it
What did you do ?
Me too idk what to do
How long would it take for the information to go through? Could I drive up, fill out the papers with the owner, buy the car, head home with it, and drop off the papers at my DMV?
I would go to the dmv with the seller and fill out and turn in the forms there. it is for your security so that you dont get screwed over. this is what I would do. if everything works out, the dmv will send you the new title in your name with 2-4 weeks. hope you get it all worked out👍
What about if the title coming late from DMV can you still sell it
Ok what if the car hasn’t been registered since 1987 and it’s a lost title. I’m in CA and I’m wondering what happens after we get the form filled out and they still say they can’t find any records of the car since it’s been so long
I got a great deal on a car recently. Confused though because within the last 3 months I see signatures from 3 different owners. This car literally got tossed around. Anyway the last owner gave me all the things but the only real thing I signed was a receipt. The pink is filled out from three owners ago, the bill of sale is fron the owner I just bought is from two owners ago. I feel like something is really messed up here. I have all documents but idk what to say at the DMV.
bring in the signed documents from the other buyers and a bill of sale and you will be good to go
My car has an electronic title. Could I fill out a Title Reassignment and have the buyer take it to the DMV and it’s just that simple?
Daily Driver when i looked on the DMV website it says that the vessel/vehicle reassignment form is not available online since its printed on security paper. am i looking at the right form? what form number is it exaclty? thank you in advance!
no you can print it off the website. you aren't looking at the right form. its reg form 262
@@DaylyDriverDayly this is what is says when i look up the form "The Vehicle/Vessel Transfer and Reassignment Form (REG 262) is a single-page multipurpose form that combines odometer disclosure, bill of sale, and power of attorney.
The REG 262 is not available online because it is printed on security paper, which makes it compliant with federal odometer disclosure regulations.
If you do not need to disclose the odometer reading, you may download and print a Bill of Sale REG 135 (PDF) form or a Power of Attorney REG 260 (PDF) form." so do we have to wait for the form to be mailed in?
@@christopherlone98 I've printed it off the computer before on a pdf file. if you cant find it then make up a bill of sale with the both the buyer and seller names and information and wait until the dmv or aaa open back up in order to get the forms
Hello I have a situation where a car was given to me ,but I never regsitered it under my name. I want to sell it now... Can I sell it without registering it under my name ? Would this pink slip be the right paper to fill out? How would I get ahold of this form?
good question. do you not have the original title that was given to you when you received the car? if not, you will need to contact the person that gave you the car and you and that person will fill these forms out. you can obtain them off of the dmv website. let me know if you have any further questions. I'm happy to help
Does this work for Florida
Before buying a car without a title how can I find out if it doesn’t have a lean ??? I’ve heard then it’s impossible to get a title for it
Very useful and helpful video, thank you! I'm confused because the DMV website states "Statement of Facts (REG 256) form
Used when the vehicle is obtained from a family member". The new owner (buyer) completes the REG 256." So is this form not necessary if you sell to a non-family member? Just to clarify, I as seller will sign the REG 227 (selling without original title) and hand it over to buyer (my boyfriend's aunt) w/smog certificate to file with DMV? I know that I can file the Notice of Transfer & Release of Liability online after.
thank you very much. to answer your question, whether you are buying or selling a car without a title you are going to have to fill out a statement of facts no matter the situation

Hi, great video one question all the paperwork you show on the video is turned in by the new owner??
The paperwork can be turned in by either the seller or new owner as long as it gets turned in. You as the seller will have to fill out some portions of the paperwork needless. Hope this answers your question. Thanks for the response.
Do you know how long does the process takes when sending it in?
Would this apply to someone who just purchased a car from an auction? Do you still need hear same forms?
I might not get an answer but, If I bought the car from the buyer(basically Title lost owner sells to buyer, he sells it to me). Do I have to get the buyer to sign REG227 or the original owner? The buyer did get the seller to sign REG227 but for sure the DMV lady was so rushed she forgot to tell me this part and I have absolutely no clue and I do not want to go to the DMV more than 3-4 times for a piece of paper I can print out.

Does the lien holder notarize section 5 after the buyer fills in his/her section 6?
hi so i recently bought this car and thought i was gonna keep it but recently decided I want to sell it. I’ve only had it for about a month and have a buyer that’s cash ready. The title hasn’t came in the mail yet from when i bought it. Can i do what the video shows?
yes you can. make up a bill of sale, and have the title transferred into the buyers name. if the title is being sent to you already you can still have it transferred to the new owner

I am looking to buy a car here in California and ship it to Philadelphia to do my paperwork and tittle transfer there. Due to COVID, the dmv of California is requiring tittle tranfers to be done online. The seller claims he’s done his tittle transfer online about 2 weeks ago and still hasn’t received the tittle under his name.
My first concern is that i will be needing the tittle because i want to have the vehicle shipped to Philadelphia, also registered and tittled in Philadelphia, So will the REG 277 form help with that or is there a specific way i need to go about handling this situation? Or do We need to file a specific form from the Pennsylvania Dmv?
My second and last concern is since he does not have the tittle how can i verify that the car is his? Since he will be signing the REG 277 form to me
Thank you
the best advice I could give you would be to go to aaa if you or the seller has it, or dmv to verify the title is being transferred to him and ask them what you need to do in order to properly transfer the title into your name and have it registered in another state. i am not familiar with Pennsylvania state laws in regards to this. I would contact Pennsylvania state dmv or aaa office as well to get more information regarding your situation. wish I could help out more. best of luck and hope you get it worked out
Hi I’m in Georgia I bought a car with a Lien from a private seller for 1600. He said it was 1100 to pay of the loan. And he said he paid of the loan. I got the bill of sale but still don’t have the title . What do I do moving forward?
that's a touchy situation because you dont have the payoff paperwork showing how much exactly is owed on the lien in order to transfer the title into your name do you? secondly, there could be multiple liens on the car or a lot more money owed on the lien than what the seller told you. if I were you I would go to your local dmv office to find out more information regarding the vehicle lien status because they will be able to provide you more information than I can give you at this point. I hope this helps you out a bit. sorry I cant give you more information. nest of luck. I hope you can get the title to the car👌👌
What if you have done all this paperwork and the DMV asking for a bill of sell it to register it ?
then you need to get a bi of sale. getting a bill of sale is very important any and every time you buy or sell a vehicle. it will save you in situations like you are in where you now need to back track in order to get a bill of sale.

Ok my friend sold me a Honda civic and sent the upper part of the pink slip for the name transfer to the dmv. I no longer want the car and I want to resell it in hopes to get my money back.

doesn't the transfer have to get notarized?
not unless the vehicle is financed through the bank
Can i also use for 262 for sale

I'm sure they are the same or similar forms for Minnesota. make a bill of sale for you and the buyer of the vehicle. the forms can be printed off of the mn.gov website for the paperwork needed. just fill out the application for a new title and transfer of ownership that the new owner will mail in since everything is closed right now. you and the new owner will need to fill that paperwork out

I’m in the same boat did you happen too find any info?
Does Section 5 Legal Owner of Record Release not need to be done if there is no money owed on the vehicle? I noticed that wasn't highlighted.

I was going to respond until I saw you got the answer to your question 👌
I sent everything out. Will they send me an invoice for paying for all of this?
@@jinky0u812 you won't get an invoice. you will get the title sent to you
Ok, so who has to take this information to the Dmv? the buyer or the seller?
it would be best to go together incase there is something that was a portion not signed by one of the parties in the transaction. otherwise, I'd suggest the seller take the information
Does any of this require a notary public?
yes, not having the title requires a notary for your safety as the buyer
If you did the release of liability online, do you still have to send the form with the rest of the other documents?

Hi, thank you so much for your video. It is super helpful. Regarding to transfer of ownership, I have a question. I started the process of transfer of ownership last August. According to DMV's request, I already paid tax and mailed the pink-slip to the address which DMV requested to me a month ago. At that time, I got a notification from mail company showing that the mail was delivered to the address. However, the DMV system continuously shows "they are waiting for the pink-slip". Honestly, at this point, I believe they lost my document. In this situation, could you let me know what I should do to solve the issue and complete the transfer of ownership successfully? Do I have to apply for duplicate or paperless title with REG 227B form ?
I'm so happy rn and thanks to Cyber Credible it was difficult filling out my car title I just got a Mercedes for the dealership and they left me to fill everything without experience...

If you’re the seller which one do you turn in to the dmv to tak off the Liability off your name
Mario Alvarez you would just fill out the release of liability. You can go to the DMV to get the paper, but if I were you I would just go to the DMV website and fill out the form there
Would you sign section 3 after checking?
Great video. My father is currently in a nursing home and I have his truck but cannot find title. He is registered at my home address for his dmv records. Would I be able to complete the transfer process without him having to go into the dmv and would I be able to obtain a new pink slip at this address without him going into dmv?
Do you need to send a check when mailing all the docs, also can I as the owner fill out my part and have the buyer fill out there part and mail it with a check.
You can't send a personal check. It needs to be a cashiers check or money order. Yes you can mail the payment with the information but again it needs to be a cashiers check or money order.
How do we know how much $$ to send?
Hello, thank you for the information. Do you know how long take to get the title?

Hi I've a question.. 2 weeks ago to date I bought a car from a neighbor that buys and sells car from auctions. He hasn't give me the car title or ANY paperwork of the car so I can go register it cause supposedly they haven't gave it to him. I already did a smog check on the car and my dmv appointment is this Monday and I'm afraid that I will go to the dmv and come empty handed. I keep asking and asking him when is he gonna provide me with any kind of documentation for the car but I don't wanna be so hard and I don't wanna break up this cool "neighbor bond" lol. He did just gave me an invoice/receipt when I bought the car. So my question is, when I go to the dmv and take the smog check certificate(it passed) and the invoice he gave me(he put all his info in it) will I be able to put the car under my name?
as long as you have a bill of sale for the vehicle and a smog certificate which he has given you than you should be ready for the dmv. they should be able to get it squared away with you. ask your neighbor for the auction paperwork that he was given from where he bought the car.
Hi I have a question, I bought a truck but the person that had the truck never registered and he bought from the auction can I still get a tittle for the truck?
great question and thanks for asking. yes you can still get the title for the vehicle, however, it has to have the signed paperwork that came from the auction and from the person you purchased it from. once you have that paperwork you can take it or mail it into the dmv (easier to go through aaa if you have them) and get the title transferred into your name. you also need the current smog certification. hope this helps👌
