How do you transfer a car loan to another person?

I want to get rid of my financed car and my neighbor has expressed interest in buying it. How would I transfer the loan to him?

“When you transfer a car loan to another person, you are essentially selling the car, and the process is very similar to a car sale. Put simply, the person taking ownership of the car will have to refinance the car, get it registered, and obtain
car insurance
 in their name. “

Can you have homeowners insurance and renters insurance?
I never had renters insurance when I still lived in an apartment. Now that I bought a home and moved in last month, is there any value in getting renters insurance too? Can you have homeowners insurance and renters insurance at the same time?
