Question about selling a car I owe payments on.

Recommended Posts

I want to sell a vehicle that I owe payments on.

Lets say I get a buyer lined up. The buyer takes out a personal loan to pay me for the vehicle.

I would then pay the rest of my lien with the money the buyer gave to me.

My question is, would the bank take the money the buyer gave me as just regular money, or would it look like loan money? How can I use the money given to me? I would use it to completely pay off my vehicle, acquire the title, and then put it in the buyers name to finalize the deal.

So what I would like to know, is can I pay off the vehicle if the money I receive from the buyer is some sort of loan?

Just call the bank you have the loan with and explain the situation.

I'm in the same predicament. I'm 2 payments behind, and honestly can't afford my payments anymore. Just want to sell it for what's still owed ($9800) and be done with it.

Life has kicked my ass since moving back from Cleveland.

Ideally, I would do a triple down.

I have three cars. One of them is paid off and the other two are one lien.

In an ideal situation, I would sell my owned car for the amount I owe on my lowest financed vehicle. Then I would sell the highest financed vehicle to break even. Yes, I realize I would be temporarily carless but it would be in my best interest.

I did this a few years ago. Once we agreed on the price, I disclosed my payoff with the buyer. I met the buyer at his bank where he withdrew the funds. He had his bank wire transfer the funds to the credit union that held my loan. Had he not had the cash, a loan would have given him a check he would have given me.

After confirmation of funds received, they expedited the title to me. I had created a buyers contract with the buyer that I agreed to relinquish the title upon receipt.
Then I met the guy at his bank with the title and signed it over to him and had it notarized. Deal done. In my particular case I sold the car for more than my payoff, so my lender refunded me the difference after paying off my loan.

Have you called the bank to explain the situation?  If not, do that right now, they will typically work with you, they would rather not send the wrecker.

Put it on Craigslist, start calling any and all dealerships to see if they will buy the car, get it off you before you ruin your credit.

Why not just meet the buyer at your bank. The bank has the title and can take the payoff amount from the buyer and you and the bank sign the title and give it to the buyer. You keep the remaining money after the payoff amount

Just call your branch and make sure that they get the title to that branch.

    • We are wearing black jerseys with blue pants. I'm getting a little exhausted with all the combos.  I kinda miss the black/silver and black/black for certain games tbh. 
    • Its not something that could be backed up by data one way or the other.  Its just an opinion, like most things stated here.   Regarding my comment that started this discussion, Imo its more difficult to find good offensive linemen than wide receivers, due to a number of factors.  Granted that anyone that reaches the NFL has elite skills, but  I think that most players with the size, strength and skill would rather play on the defensive line.  If an offensive linemen does his job well, no one hears his name.  But if a Dlinemen gets to the qb a couple of times a game, all the fans know it.   Have a good offensive line directly impacts the run and passing attacks.  Where as have a good group of receivers only indirectly impacts the run game.  Miami's run game has taken a huge hit this year, while ours have improved.  I think Hunt is a big part of the reason this is true.  Not the only part of course, but a big part.
