Make it Easier

CARCHEX.com partners with Escrow.com to offer a title escrow service for buyers and sellers of used vehicles. Allowing a company to handle the auto title transfer can result in a streamlined process with a lot less hassle and a lower possibility of fraud problems. Escrow.com handles the paperwork involved with transferring the title and this saves you time: the time involved in processing the paperwork and the time involved with researching the procedures involved in car title transfers if the sale takes place across state lines. Another state's Department of Motor Vehicles may do things a little differently than the DMV in your state, and if you are not familiar with the rules and regulations you may improperly file the documents. By using a title escrow service, you can also be sure that the title is safe while the sale is being completed. You are not in danger of transferring a car title over to someone who does not wind up paying you the full amount initially agreed upon. Best of all, the process generally speeds up when you use a title transfer service.
