Important Info For Buyers
Buying a Car
For many people, buying a car is one of the most expensive purchases they will make. Buyers should do their research before making a purchase. To facilitate this process, we have put together “The Car Handbook” with car buying guidelines and references.
The Minnesota Department of Public Safety (DPS)
is the state agency that licenses and regulates motor vehicle dealerships in Minnesota. The Department of Public Safety has the authority to take action against a dealership that violates the law when selling vehicles. If you experience a problem with a motor vehicle dealership, you can file a complaint with the Department of Public Safety. Private sellers are not related, and we always recommend you do your homework.
Do We Inspect The Vehicles?
We do not inspect or represent the vehicle in any way – all transactions are conducted directly with the private seller. We strongly encourage every buyer to conduct their own due diligence before purchasing a vehicle.
Should I have The Vehicle Inspected?
It's always wise to take a vehicle to a trusted mechanic for an inspection. Remember, older cars with higher mileage are not like new vehicles and often come with minor issues due to their age. A mechanic can assess whether the car is safe to drive and identify any potential problem.
Clean Vs Salvage Titles?
Be sure to ask for the title and request a CarFax History Report if the seller has one available.
PAYING FOR YOUR VEHICLE?
While most sellers prefer cash, the accepted payment method is ultimately up to them. Some sellers may accept a personal or cashier’s check but may require you to accompany them to the issuing bank to verify the funds.
Do I need a bill of Sale?
A basic vehicle transaction involves you paying the seller, who in return provides you with the keys and a signed title transferring ownership. We also recommend that both parties complete a simple "Bill of Sale."
AFTER THE SALE
Please reach out to the seller directly to resolve any issues. Even something as simple as a signature in the wrong place on the title can delay the transfer process.
