In a private party sale the title should be released and signed over from the seller to the buyer when the agreed upon amount of money is exchanged.
If the seller does not have a title available, it would be best not to involve yourself as there may be a lien on the title from a bank or other party which could forfeit you from legally owning the car even if you paid the seller for the car. The lien holder of the title must sign off on it before it can be transferred.
If it is a sale from a car dealer then they should give you a bill of sale and come up with a title for you at some point. The amount of time may vary as they may not have a title in hand right away.
