Holding the title is common sense. Complying with all applicable laws and regulations and making sure the contract is not unenforcable or voidable due to some stupid ass clause you put in there is a little bit trickier. Get a lawyer to draw one up for you.

Hold Title and Car until its paid for, that would be the only way I would finance a car.

I just wouldn't do it. Find somebody who can pay for the car outright. Way too much of a headache and way too many potential complications.

I would do it if you weren't concerned the with car much...just in case he screws it up. Just get a lawyer to right it up and there is probably a good chance that he'll pay for a while and then miss a payment and you can go get it. So free money and the car

Troux,
you have to sign the tittle over and put a lien on it. there are legal documents you can find for the loan you would be giving the buyer, you should use them and sign it.

You then might be able to sell the loan / lein on the car as well.

I would not do this for your car. Follow up on the lead with Ken Henderson, that's prolly a good bet.

My dad ran a used car dealership for several years and financed a few cars off so if you want details give me a call. - Get my number from Kirk.
