Planning to sell your old car to upgrade to a new one? You should be ready to deal with a mountain of paperwork before you can get it off your hands.
If you’re not a fan of processing documents and visiting the DMV, you might be shocked at the amount of legwork you need to do. Here are just some of the papers you need to process and prepare for your buyer.
- Car title
You have to follow the procedures for transferring the title of your car to its prospective buyer. States differ on the requirements for retitling vehicles, so you need to find out the specific requirements in your state. A couple of requirements you may have to do is to sign the title as the seller and provide the buyer with a document showing your vehicle’s odometer reading. If you’ve lost the original copy of your title, you may have to visit your local DMV to request a duplicate copy of the title.
- Bill of sale
Even though a bill of sale isn’t legally needed as one of the paperwork you need to sell an automobile, you should still offer one. The document sets the date of sale. This legally ensures that you are released from liability and that your buyer assumes responsibility for the vehicle’s as-is condition.
- Warranty
You must have your warranty documents ready when selling your car if the warranty is transferrable. The warranty should increase the value of your auto.
- Service history
Documentation of maintenance work, such as oil changes, brake services, fluid top-offs, and other larger repairs and upgrades, is helpful since a prospective purchaser would want to see that the vehicle that they are buying has been well taken care of.
