Have you been shopping for used cars in Saukville, WI? Thinking it’s time to trade in your own? We’ve compiled a comprehensive guide to used car titles at Schmit Bros Auto so you can confidently buy or sell.
What is a Title?
The title is one of a vehicle’s most important documents. In fact, a title must be involved anytime a car is bought or sold since it establishes who the owner is. Anytime a vehicle is resold, the title is reissued with the new owner’s information.
What Information is on a Title?
A car title includes the owner’s name and address and when and where the vehicle was purchased. It also contains details about the car, such as its make, model, year, color, odometer status, and VIN. The title will also include the financing lender’s information if your vehicle is financed.
How Do I Know if it’s Authentic?
The buyer, seller, and representative of the purchasing state should sign a genuine title. It will also include a watermark and a raised seal.
What if I Lose My Title?
While there will be a fee, you can replace your title. Visit your nearest Wisconsin DMV Customer Service Center to request a replacement.
How Do You Transfer a Title?
If you decide to trade in your vehicle, we’ll take care of the transfer for you. Otherwise, you’ll need to handle the transfer yourself. Keep in mind that if your car isn’t paid off yet, you’ll need to take care of the balance before a lender will release the title to you.
