As-is sale — What You Need to Know

The vehicle is sold in its current condition with no warranty from the seller. The buyer accepts all risk of defects known or unknown at the time of sale.

Seller guidance

Include explicit "as-is" language in the bill of sale. Under UCC § 2-316(3)(a), writing "as-is" or "with all faults" in the contract effectively disclaims all implied warranties, including the implied warranty of merchantability under UCC § 2-314. Still disclose known material defects — concealing known defects can constitute fraud even in an as-is sale.

Buyer guidance

An as-is sale gives you no recourse for undisclosed defects after closing. Order a pre-purchase inspection from a licensed mechanic before agreeing to price. Review any known issue list the seller provides and get it in writing.

Legal note (Texas-specific)

Texas allows private party as-is sales with proper disclosure. The Texas DTPA (Deceptive Trade Practices Act) still prohibits misrepresentation even in as-is transactions. Include "as-is" language in the bill of sale and disclose known defects. Texas does not require a state vehicle inspection for private sales, but the buyer must obtain one within 30 days of registration.

Devine As-is sale van printable — when to file

Texas requires title transfer within 30 days of the sale date on the bill of sale. For as-is sale transactions specifically, file at Texas TxDMV – Devine (Visit https://www.txdmv.gov to find the nearest Devine office) during normal hours: Mon–Fri 8:00 AM–5:00 PM (verify hours with local office). Texas TX does not require a notarized bill of sale; however, Form 14-317 (Affidavit of Motor Vehicle Gift Transfer) must be notarized. Miss the 30-day window and Texas typically charges a late-transfer penalty plus accrued use tax, and the seller can remain on the title for civil liability until the buyer completes retitling. Bring the signed title, the completed Devine bill of sale, your government-issued ID, and payment for the $33.00 title transfer fee plus 6.25% sales tax on the purchase price.

Printable reminder. Whether you keep your printable as a printed two-copy paper record, both buyer and seller should leave the signing with an identical executed copy. The buyer needs the original to present at Texas TxDMV – Devine; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
