New York Title Transfer SELLER Instructions - YouTube

all right let's look at the New York car title transfer instructions when you are

selling a vehicle. Just make sure that you don't erase anything and don't use

whiteout. Don't cross or scratch anything out.

Write neatly with good handwriting only use black or blue ink. Use actual names...

so no nicknames. Don't make mistakes because any errors can void the document.

All right so if there are any lienes shown on the front of the title that are

not released you will need to have it signed off by the lien holder or obtain

an original release document from lien holder. You can check the status of

official liens against the title online at the link in the description of this

video in addition to links to all the other resources that are mentioned. Ok so

on the back of the title you'll fill in section one transfer by owner. Fill in

the odometer reading the space provided. This is not required if the vehicle is

over ten years old. You want to enter your mileage exactly as it appears on

your odometer and do not include tenths. If the odometer reflects actual

mileage then check that box. Or, if the odometer does not reflect the actual

miles in the car, check the box that says "not actual mileage" warning odometer

discrepancy. And, check the appropriate box under "odometer has space for".

It's basically how many digits are on the odometer but uh

most modern cars at least six

alright then the damage disclosure statement you'll check the appropriate

box. You'll check one or the other and you just want make sure you read that

carefully. Then the seller signs on the indicated line and prints their name on the

line provided to the right. Make sure that you print your name or names

exactly as they appear on the front of the title below name and address of

owner. And, make sure that you do not use short names or nicknames and if there's

more than one name, you have to squeeze them in on one line on most copies or

versions of the title I mean. When there's two registers listed on the

title then make sure that you look to see if there's an OR, or nothing in

between the registered owner's names. If there is an OR, then either a register

owner can sign and print their name using the instructions above to sell the

vehicle. Otherwise, the signatures and printed names of both registered owners

are gonna be required to sell it. Then you'll enter in the address and the

date and spaces provided. Then the purchasers sign on the indicated line

and prints name on the line provided in the space and the address and date

are entered in if the space as provided.

Next, you and the buyer need to make a bill of sale in most cases. This form is

available in the description link resources and it's just it's a good idea

always keep a copy for yourself.

and so yeah make a photocopy of both sides of the completed title for your

records. Then keep your license plates and remove the registration sticker from

the windshield. If you need assistance, locations are listed in the

link in the description. Also, this doesn't cover every situation and there

might be different things that you might have to do for depending on what city

you live in for example. But, as far as filling out the actual title paperwork,

this covers most cases. If you do have a lost or damaged title, there's a link in

the page in the video description that basically will show you how to do

that and tell you the right forms and stuff. But yeah, hopefully this was

helpful and good luck selling your car and have a wonderful day, thanks.
