Seller financing — What You Need to Know
The seller extends credit to the buyer and accepts installment payments over time, rather than receiving the full purchase price at closing. The seller holds a security interest in the vehicle until the loan is paid.
Seller guidance
Seller financing is a regulated credit transaction under the federal Truth in Lending Act (TILA) and Regulation Z (12 CFR Part 1026). You must provide the buyer with a written disclosure of APR, finance charge, total amount financed, payment schedule, and total of payments before the contract is signed. Perfect your security interest by recording yourself as a lienholder on the title with the DMV.
Buyer guidance
You are entitled to a written TILA disclosure before signing. Review the APR and total cost carefully — seller financing often carries higher rates than traditional lenders. The seller retains a lien on the vehicle until you pay in full; failure to make payments can result in repossession under the terms of your agreement and your state's repossession laws.
Legal note
TILA (15 U.S.C. § 1638) and Regulation Z require written disclosures for any credit transaction. A separate promissory note and security agreement should accompany the bill of sale. The seller must file a UCC-1 financing statement or record the lien on the title to perfect the security interest under UCC Article 9. State usury laws cap the maximum interest rate for private installment sales.

Miss the 30-day window and Utah 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.

Template reminder. Whether you keep your template as a blank template you fill in by hand, both buyer and seller should leave the signing with an identical executed copy. The buyer needs the original to present at Utah DMV – Burlington Junction; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
