Buying a used car from a private seller in Wisconsin

Title transfers in Wisconsin are handled by the Wisconsin 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.

Wisconsin winters bring heavy road salt — check frames and brake lines. AWD and 4x4 vehicles are in high demand.

Rules and fees change; confirm current requirements with the Wisconsin DMV before you buy.
