Selling An Automotive Vehicle : Complete A Full And Proper Bill Of Sale Document By Terry Z. Voster At Isnare.com Ezine Articles

Automobile vehicle seller – ensure that you make out a proper bill of sale. It takes an extra bit of time to ensure that your documentation is in proper and correct out but in the end anything is plain foolish, sloppy and just “false economy”. It’s not unlike the person who bragged they were saving a penny when in the end it cost them many thousands of dollars.

You can more easily and comprehensively close the sale. A properly written bill of sale is a legal document – a contract between you and the seller that all is complete, in order and details agreed to. There is no coming back of the buyer. Simple as that.
It is agreed over and done with.
‘
If the bill of sale is not completed – as an oversight or laziness then the buyer then the buyer can renege on the deal or make extra demands. It becomes a “she said, he said” routine. Why make your life unnecessarily complex when it need not be? Fire departments have fire prevention departments to prevent unnecessary fires that need be.
Why not do the same for yourself by taking the time to write a proper, full and correct bill of sale?

If the paperwork is not complete – then how on earth do you expect the buyer to complete auto financing if need be. Not everyone has the cash on hand, in their bank account to complete a large purchase. Financing may be the only way to get that cash in your hand. A poorly written bill of sale is guaranteed to stop the finance application process dead in its tracks. A properly written one will often just slide through the process like a kid down a water slide. Further a resubmitted finance application is more likely to attract more full attention on its second way through the process than a first timer which goes through more unannounced and in a routine, ordinary manner.

Ditto the same process with registration and licensing of the vehicle. Why waste your time and energy unnecessarily for the chances of having to sort out problems with documentation of the vehicle, when it takes time and energy better spent other elsewhere, allows for customer satisfaction on the part of the car, truck, van or SUV buyer, and allows for post cognitive dissonance on the part of the auto buyer. The purchaser can easily make the choice that something is wrong with the whole process or vehicle and have “wriggle room “ along with just legal cause to demand return of the vehicle along with their money.

Again who needs the unnecessary stress, aggravation and negative effect on your bottom line as well as credibility in your local community or market? Take the time to provide a proper, full and comprehensive bill of sale. In many cases now the document can be easily compiled on computers and printed on computer printers. Business type Laser printers are a wiser choice among lawyers and legal experts. Not only are laser printers cheaper to run overall and faster , their type will not bleed if accidentally wet whereas as less expensive inkjet printers will have their type bleed to a unintelligible mess if a glass of water or cup of coffee has been spilled upon them. More than one legal problem has been facilitated and protracted in this manner. The bill of sale can be written with specific auto industry programs if installed or more simply written in a standard word processor of an office suite program such as Microsoft Office or Open Office or even the simple word processors – the more comprehensive “WordPad” or the simpler “notepad” programs that come installed on most computers. In a pinch a handwritten bill can be written. A handwritten bill is a legal document that is perfectly legal, proper and enforceable by law. Cars, luxury SUVs and even houses have been sold with a simple hand written bill of sale. However such a document is harder to validate and if the buyer appears at either the Canadian border , finance company or state / provincial offices to register the vehicle – then this more apparent bill of sale may be ”noted by the authorities” so notes long standing automobile industry analyst and observer Winnipeg based William Simpson. The answer is simply to go into any office supply store and purchase a ready made pre printed blank format bill of sale for you to complete. It must be noted that if you are unfamiliar with the process of completing a bill of sale or are not totally fluent with the process or language then it is not a wise idea to fill out or complete the purchase bill of sale yourself. Take the time and effort as well as impact on your ego – delegate this process, ask help or if need be seek legal or paralegal assistance. It’s all there in your city or marketplace.

It can be said that honesty and integrity are the watchwords in the automobile industry. Take the time to properly complete the legal documentation and bill of sale to any vehicle purchasers. Anything else is just plain poor economy overall and even an accident waiting to happen.
