FREE HOMEWORK GUY PRIVATE PARTY VEHICLE BILL OF SALE
A free printable fillable PDF to help private buyers and sellers properly document a vehicle sale.
Selling your vehicle privately can often save — or make — you thousands of dollars compared to trading it in at a dealership.
Unfortunately, many dealerships lowball trade-in values heavily, then turn around and resell those same vehicles for thousands more. Even worse, we’ve seen situations where trade-in paperwork allegedly wasn’t handled properly, creating legal and financial nightmares for the original owner months later.
That’s one of the reasons we created this FREE Homework Guy Private Party Vehicle Bill of Sale.
What This Free Bill of Sale Helps Document
- Buyer and seller information
- Vehicle details and VIN
- Odometer reading
- Purchase price
- “AS IS” protection language
- Signature sections
- Private sale safety reminders
Private Party Sale Safety Tips
We strongly encourage anyone selling a vehicle privately to:
- Meet at the buyer’s bank during business hours
- Verify certified funds
- Keep copies of all paperwork
- Notify your DMV immediately after the sale
- Follow all title transfer laws in your state
Why Private Party Selling Can Be Smarter
Private party sales can be a great way to avoid dealership lowball trade offers, help another family buy a vehicle at a better price, avoid junk dealer fees and forced add-ons, and keep more of your hard-earned money.
