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.

Seller financing checklist

  • Prepare a written promissory note specifying principal, APR, payment schedule, and total cost
  • Provide TILA disclosure box (APR, finance charge, amount financed, total payments) at signing
  • Record the seller's lien on the vehicle title at the DMV
  • Include default and repossession terms in the financing agreement
  • File a UCC-1 financing statement if relying on UCC Article 9 (varies by state for titled vehicles)
