FAQ
If you have a bill of sale for your car, you can get a title for it. It just requires a bit of research and a few extra steps. Having the title can streamline your car ownership experience, proving legal ownership and serving as a vital form of record for your local DMV.
The signatures legally bind the document, confirming that both parties agree to the terms of the sale as described. Witness or Notarization (If Required): Depending on the item being sold or local requirements, a witness's signature or notarization may be necessary to validate the Bill of Sale.
To take over ownership of a vehicle, you will need: If the seller is not the owner whose name is on the title, you will need a Bill of Sale signed by both the seller and the person whose name appears on the title. A record of the odometer mileage (if the vehicle is less than 10 years old).
Sure a bill of sale can be handwritten. As a matter of fact, it appears that a bill of sale is not technically required in California. It is just highly recommended.
It's actually simple. Get the car smogged if required. Sign and date the title when the buyer pays for the car. Fill out the 'release of liability' attached to the title completely and mail it to DMV. It's not complicated. I've done it twice this year.
For motor vehicles, you can use the form that the state of California provides (Form Reg-135) or you can draft an original document. California does not provide an official Bill of Sale for livestock. If you buy or sell a horse in California, you will need to draft your own bill of sale.
Search for the check or credit card receipt used, to prove the payment was processed. Get information from the prior owner. Follow up with the previous owner to request documentation they may have filed to relinquish legal ownership. Follow the communications trail.
Think of the two documents as complementary. While a bill of sale certifies a transfer of ownership between two parties, a title certifies the buyer's legal ownership. It's the final step in the process and proves that the buyer is the legal owner.
