You take the death certificate to the Dept. of Motor Vehicles and valid identification for you. You can have the decedents name removed from the title and it transferred into just your name, as long as your name is the other name already on the title. Otherwise if you would need the other person on the title go through this process and sign the vehicle over to you.
sign the persons name on pink slip releasing interest.he/she ain't around to dispute it right ?
my husban died can i sign a car title in my name to sell it.
no you may not sell a car without a title if you want to sell a car you need a title
The title would revert to the survivor; this person should probably take a death certificate and the old title with both names to the BMV and get a new title issued with just his/her name on it.
The car goes into the estate. The estate may sell the car to cover debt and costs. They may also transfer title to the appropriate party.
they both have to agreeand if one dosent agree the other cant sell it
My husband died in Nov. and I cant find the title to the car, that has both our names on it, how can I get the car in just my name in case I ever need to sell it, I need the title for the car insurance company too, thanks
You can sell a car with no title but the consumer cannot register it without a title.
Depends on your state laws. Ask your local DMV for this answer.
No. Not if both names were on the Certificate of Title. The surviving co-owner would own the car.
If bothe names are on the title then no. If its just your name then yes. If the bank has the title then call them about it. In my experience its a huge pain in the ass to sell a car with a lien on it. Trust me. If it is a title and the other person signs off on it then yes. If you are trying to sell the car without the other named person whether it is a title or registration then no.
When a CA title has 2 names on it the way the names are recorded will decide who can sell the vehicle. If the names on the title read "person 1 / person 2" then both parties would have to sign off title to sell vehicle but when the title reads "person 1 or person 2 then only one of the two people have to sign the title in order to sell the vehicle. So basically if the names are recorded with a / (meaning end) between the names then both parties must sell but if the names are recorded with an OR between them then only one person has to sign off title for sale. Other states may be different, so check with your DMV to be sure. In some, "or" is used instead of "/."
Yes you must have a title to sell the car. If you do not have a title contact your local DMV for advise on how to get a title.
