Buying a used car from a private seller in Texas

Title transfers in Texas are handled by your county tax assessor-collector (Texas DMV). 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.

In Texas, the buyer and seller should sign the title and Form 130-U together, and the buyer must title the vehicle within 30 days. Gulf Coast vehicles should be checked for flood damage.

Rules and fees change; confirm current requirements with your county tax assessor-collector (Texas DMV) before you buy.
