Can You Get A Deal On A Car With No Title?

Understanding the Risks of Title-less Vehicle Purchases
Generally, we do not recommend purchasing a vehicle without a title. In fact, you may want to check your state laws to make sure you’re even allowed to do that. There are many risks that can come up if you buy a vehicle without a title. If there’s something about the vehicle history, you can be stuck with the car without a title in the long run.

Current Market Conditions Creating New Opportunities
Nevertheless, we’re seeing some things in the used car market that might indicate that if you could find a vehicle that’s affordable that you can get a great deal on without a title, but you want to be sure you can actually get a title. You want to make sure that it’s not a problem that cannot be solved. You may be able to avoid dealing with a used car market with no deals.

The Vanishing Affordable Car Market
According to this article from Autoblog, inexpensive used cars are vanishing. The used car market is skyrocketing. It’s very difficult to find any used vehicle for any kind of reasonable price and sometimes the only way to do it is to make an exception to some of the normal due diligence.

Strategic Approach to Title-less Vehicle Deals
If you find a vehicle that the seller doesn’t have a title, but the reason they don’t is a solvable problem, you may be able to kind of hack the market and get something that’s a great deal on a nice car. Kind of like if you bought a car that’s a fixer upper, you need to maybe put new tires on it or fix a transmission.

The Fixer-Upper Title Strategy
That’s some method you can use to get a cheap car. You could do the same thing by buying a fixer upper with the title. If you can get that title problem solved, then you can take advantage of the reduced market value that the seller would have to offer because they don’t have a legal title certificate.

Essential Precautions and Documentation
Again, make sure you’re allowed to do that in your state. Make sure that you get good documentation and make sure there’s nothing about that vehicle that could come up later that could prevent you from getting a title. And those are things that are crucial because if you buy a car with no title and then it turns out the car is not eligible for a title, now all your money’s gone. You’re stuck with a piece of metal in your front yard.
