Is there any info for the car, an old registration, the title(old or new)? The first thing you have to determine is, who is on the title as registered/legal owner. If your roomate owned the car, had no liens on it, then it will be pretty straight forward transaction, however, if their is a lienholder on record, it's a whole new story. The best thing to do is contact the licensing agency for your state as each state follows it's own rules as well as federally regulated laws. Get the Vin, and make your call. They will be able to tell you "yes and no answers" as far as who is on the title. If you believe it to be your roomate, state his name, they will say yes or no, same for legal owner, if you can't provide the correct info, you will be directed through the public disclosure unit to complete the transaction. Sometimes these type of transactions are a hassle, sometimes though the value of the car is great enough to be worth the extra work it takes. Good luck.
