What do you do with a car title when you sell the car privately?
Take the title along with the buyer to your local DMV and have the car transferred over from you to the buyer. Do not sign the title over until you have the money in your hand, and do not let the buyer have the car until you have it transferred out of your name.
Can you sell a car without the title?
Yes, the buyer needs to know before buying. You can get the money, pay off the car and get the title in the mail within 2-3 weeks. Then sign it over to the buyer. It is suggested that you don't let the buyer take the car until the title is in their hands.
Can you sell your car while waiting for the duplicate title?
Yes, but the buyer cannot drive away with it until the title is signed over. You can seal the deal by giving him a bill of sale which is legally binding if you both sign it. This ensures the buyer that the deal has been made and the title is his once it arrives.

How do you sell a car if the money from a private party will be used to cover what you owe on the title?
Take the buyer & title to the car with you to the lender that holds the lien on the vehicle. Use the money he is paying you to pay off the loan and get a lien release from the lender. Sign the car over to the buyer at the lender's place of business. Take this lien release and the title with you and the buyer to your DMV, and transfer the car into the buyer's name.
Can a person sell a car to another person when the car is not in their name?
Sure, if you can get the person who holds the title to sign it over to the buyer.
When one is putting a car for sale who should take care of car registration?
When you are selling a car, it is the buyer's responsibility to get the car registered. The seller should sign the title over to the buyer and the buyer is then responsible to take it to the license bureau for further action.

This is a civil matter. You should not sign over the title without being paid or without having the buyer sign a valid promissory note. You need to sue the buyer in civil court.
How can you get an ex-boyfriends name off your car titles?
He would have to sign off on the back of the title as the "Seller" and you would sign as the "Buyer." After that, take it to your local tag office to apply for a new title.
What does open title mean?
When the owner of a car signs the title, it becomes and open title, and the holder of the title is the owner of the car. When selling a vehicle, the owner should not sign the title until they have the money because if the buyer has possession of the open title and the vehicle, they can clam ownership.
The seller of a vehicle has signed over the title to the car in good faith that the buyer will pay. The buyer then changes the title to the car but did not pay. What can be done to get title back?
Not sure if you can do anything now except Small Claims court. Usually when you sign over a title, you also put a lien on it so that you get to sign off if the owner sells the car, etc. You may have to chalk it up to experience, but see if the DMV has any advice, too.
