Private sale — What You Need to Know

A transaction between two private individuals without dealer involvement. Both parties negotiate directly and the seller transfers the title after payment.

Seller guidance

You are responsible for disclosing known defects, providing an accurate odometer statement, and delivering a clean title. Once the bill of sale is signed and funds received, remove the vehicle from your insurance and notify your DMV of the transfer.

Buyer guidance

Run a title search or VIN history report (NMVTIS, CARFAX) before handing over funds. Confirm the seller is the titled owner and the title is free of liens. Take possession of the signed title on the day of sale.

Legal note

Federal odometer disclosure is required for vehicles under 10 years old under 49 CFR Part 580. Most states require a signed bill of sale to complete the title transfer at the DMV. Implied warranty of merchantability under UCC § 2-314 may apply unless the sale is expressly "as-is" under UCC § 2-316.
