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 (Washington-specific)

WA requires buyers to pay retail sales tax (typically 6.5% plus local) on the purchase price. Use form TD-420-063 (Vehicle Title Application). The seller should report the sale to DOL online within 5 days to avoid liability for future parking violations.

Private sale checklist

  • Verify the seller name matches the title exactly
  • Confirm no open liens via your state DMV or NMVTIS
  • Complete federal odometer disclosure (vehicles <10 years old)
