Purchasing a car is an exciting milestone, but ensuring you have the right paperwork is crucial for a smooth transaction. Here are the essential documents you’ll need when buying a vehicle:
1. Driver’s License or ID
A valid ID is required to complete the purchase and register the car in your name.
2. Vehicle Title
For used cars, the title proves ownership and must be transferred to you at the time of purchase. Verify that there are no outstanding liens.
3. Bill of Sale
This document includes details like the sale price, vehicle information, and both buyer and seller details. It serves as legal proof of the transaction.
4. Financing or Loan Agreement
If financing your purchase, you’ll need to sign a loan contract outlining payment terms, interest rates, and lender details.
5. Insurance Proof
Most states require proof of insurance before driving your new vehicle off the lot. Make sure to secure coverage in advance.
6. Registration and License Plates
Some dealerships handle registration for you, but if not, you’ll need to visit the DMV to register your car and obtain license plates.
7. Vehicle History Report (For Used Cars)
A CARFAX or AutoCheck report helps verify the vehicle’s accident history, maintenance records, and previous ownership, ensuring you’re making a safe purchase.
