== == It is according to the year of the vehicle, the state you are in, Weather it was abandon on private property, a towed in vehicle or brought in for repair. Each state has forms for each of these procedures often requiring searches in several adjoining states. They all require public notification and a lengthy time in obtaining the title. the hardest part of this is finding someone at the DMV that knows what they are doing. Least time and agravaition is to contact a title service company like www.getnewtitle.com , you want one with a money back guarantee in case it turns up stolen or a branded title. If you want more info contact me

Make a visit to your friendly DMV. Be prepared with the VIN. They will track the owner.

Yes the sale is legal. However you had better get to the buyer and have the car transferred out of your name. You are still listed as the owner of the car. You are still paying taxes on the car and may, in some states, be held liable for any damage done by this car in an accident or the commission of a crime. In the future never turn over the car until it is out of your name. ==Additional Information== A bill of sale does not necessarily transfer ownership of a car legally. Especially when you have handed it over to a buyer without signing the Certificate of Title (and keeping a copy of both for your records). The buyer could toss the bill of sale in a drawer and continue to drive on your title. It is troubling that the buyer hasn't contacted you to sign the Certificate of Title. Transfer of ownership of motor vehicles is done through a Certificate of Title. Some states also require a bill of sale. If you didn't sign the Certificate of Title transferring title to the new owner then they can't register the car in their own name. The situation created a grey area of liability for you and left you exposed on many levels. As the seller you didn't fulfill your legal requirement in making the transfer and that makes you liable under consumer protection laws. The buyer could sue for a refund. Since you didn't sign over the title in a timely manner the title has remained in your name and you will be liable for any parking violations, toll violations, damages and trouble with the police if the car is used to commit a crime as mentioned above. You should contact the buyer immediately and rectify the situation. If that is not possible you should speak to someone at your DMV ASAP.

If your name is in the lien holder place on the title, YES! You are the true legal owner of the vehicle. Contact your local repo agency and explain the situation. Mind you, you will have to pay them to do it... and it varies so I couldn't tell you how much it would be. You must provide them with a copy of the title with your name on it and a form authorizing them to pick up the vehicle.

Lori, did you get the matter resolved?

You can find a list provided my MA RMV (registry of motor vehicles) here:

http://www.mass.gov/rmv/forms/lienholder_hit_list.pdf This is a list of financial institutions that already have a lien holder code. We want to know how to obtain one.

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

It's not legal, ethical, or possible. A salvage title is a permanent brand. DON'T DO IT!!

Most states will allow for a bill of sale to be sufficient for a transaction. Go to the Department of Motor Vehicles in your state and explain the situation. They will have the necessary forms to accommodate your request.

Not without a court order. You will have to have the court approve any title changes through the probate process.

1. Title Company = Actual insurance company ie: Underwriter

2. Title Agency = Agent of the Title Company providing title insurance products and escrow/settlement services.

A title COMPANY is highly regulated by state law in any state. Contact the Texas Department of Insurance as follows:

Texas Department of Insurance Title Division (MC 106-2T) P.O. Box 149104 Austin, Texas 78714-9104 Fax: 512-305-7426 www.tdi.state.tx.us

To open an AGENCY, you must obtain an Abstracting Plant, which is very costly. The Texas Underwriting Manual can be found at: http://www.tdi.state.tx.us/company/titleman.html

The Rate Manual can be found at: http://www.tdi.state.tx.us/company/titlemm3.html

Additionally, contact the Texas DOI for additional licensing requirements: www.tdi.state.tx.us

The co-signer's name is on the loan, not the title, and has nothing to do with selling the car, especially after the loan has been paid off. On the other hand, a CO-OWNER's name is on the title, and it depends on how the two names are listed. If the title is made out to A and B, both must sign when selling it, but if it says A or B, either may sell it without the other's approval or knowledge. There may be exceptions to this in some states if the two are a married couple.

Many people cosign a loan for property they don't own. Many are uninformed of the consequences of cosigning. They don't realize they are agreeing to be completely responsible for a loan for property that belongs to someone else. If the primary borrower defaults on the loan and the cosigner must make the payments, the cosigner has no automatic right to the property.

i believe it is the 7th digit in the vehicle identification number. or you can look at the registration of the vehicle. or the door jamb on the drivers side will have the month and year of manufacture if after @ July it is of the next year or if it says for instance sep 01 it will be a 2002 vehicle . hope this helps

The car dealership did not sign my contract, is it still binding?

A pink slip for a car is the title. This shows who owns a vehicle. Without a pink slip, you will be unable to register a vehicle.

Nope..salvage title will stay forever

No.

You need a signed bill of sale from the previous owner.

In most cases, no. It is done all the time. Consider that when someone trades in a vehicle that is still owed on, they are in effect selling the vehicle to the dealership. That the dealership writes the loan for the new car, and transfers the unpaid balance of the first to it, means only that the dealership bought the car, but the buyer of the new car (the former owner) paid for it.

Additionally, when the vehicle is sold, before the lien holder will release the title, the unpaid balance must be paid.
