Best Answer

The Certificate of Title did not transfer the car to you because it was not notarized. Make a copy and keep the original in a safe place for now. (Eventually you will need to contact the RMV to see what you should do with the signed but un-notarized Certificate. The Certificate has been invalidated since it was not properly executed.)

The car is part of your friend's estate. His estate must be probated in order for his family to acquire the legal power to sign the car over to you. You should contact the family to see if they will sign the car over to you legally. If they're not warm to that idea then you will need to file a claim against the estate if one has been filed. If no estate is filed then you need to consult with an attorney who can review the situation and determine what your options are.

To whom I loaned money to. He signed upon his death the money would go into the acct that I had re-opened to help him out . There is no notary only his signature. Is my promissory note valid?

Your state laws will determine whether your promissory note is still valid, but you would have a much stronger case if it were notarized. With the borrower being dead, you will have to go after his estate. Since you loaned him money that he was unable to pay back while alive, I will guess that he did not leave much of an estate to pursue.
