Re: I need serious advice regarding titling issue ->
I am in the car titling business in Maryland. When a dealer in the US sells a new vehicle, he must provide the owner with the following: 1) CO - certificate of origin. The dealer will fill out the buyers name on the rear of the CO as well as any lien info to ensure it gets recorded that way in the buyer's home state, regardless of where that is. 2) Bill of sale made out to buyer 3) Odometer disclosure statement
The previous owner bought the vehicle out of state with the intent on registering in TX. Ohio dealer doesnt do out of state registrations for his customers, so he let the new owner take the paperwork and do it himself. Problem is, he never did. Now he is trying to sell a car, and apparently has, that he does not technically own until he titles in his home state.
Email me or call me...I have some ideas for you. Grayson H 410-586-3871.
Moral of story...Make sure you have title in hand when you fork over the cash or at least know where it is and what its status is.
