I just sold one of our older family cars on our insurance plan, but I’m not sure how to officially change the name on the title. What is the best way to remove a car from your name?
is easy and only requires you to sign the back of the title over to the buyer!
Once you’ve signed the back of the title over to the new owner, you should be set! They are now the legal owner of the car, and you shouldn’t face any issues of ownership.
It is important to treat any title transfer like a sale, where you are the seller and the new owner is the buyer. The title of a vehicle is proof of ownership and contains other information about the vehicle, so it is important that your title transfer is done correctly and smoothly.
