Buying a used car from a private seller in Florida
Title transfers in Florida are handled by your county tax collector (Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles). Before you pay, check that the name on the title matches the seller's ID, that there is no lien listed, and that the VIN on the title matches the VIN on the dashboard and door jamb. Always get a written bill of sale with the date, price, VIN and both signatures.
Florida cars rarely have road-salt rust, but check carefully for flood damage after hurricanes: look for silt under carpets, rusted seat bolts and a musty smell, and run a VIN history report.
Rules and fees change; confirm current requirements with your county tax collector (Florida Department of Highway Safety and Motor Vehicles) before you buy.
