car title change?

Question

How do I go about changing my car's title to my name? And how much do i expect to pay?

Answer 1

Have the seller sign the title. Take to the DMV and pay a fee of about $15-$25
If you bought it from a family member, often you do not have to pay sales tax.

Answer 2

This depends on the state. When a car changes hands sales tax must be paid on the amount of the sale. If it seems to be too low, many states have a Presumptive Value Tax they can apply based on book value.

There will also be title and registration fees which vary from state to state. Some states also require a signed application for title, or a notarized bill of sale. Check your state DMV website for requirements.

Answer 3

The previous owner should have signed the back of title, conveying ownership to you.
Send it to the Department of Motor Vehicles to obtain a title in your name.
You may be able to do it at the local DMV, not sure.
A small fee is required.

Answer 4

if its a family memeber then have them say they sold you the car for 20 bucks or giving as a gift some times they dont charge you on that... if not i think its 50 to 100 bucks.

Answer 5

touch the branch of motorcars and desire like hell it wasn't stolen! without the identify, you may not register the motor vehicle. in case you have not have been given a sparkling identify, then you definately do not own the motor vehicle. i'm specific it is not insured the two.
