So what are the realities of getting a vehicle title when you don’t have the old title? We’ve talked many times before about how to get a car title when you don’t have the proper documents. There are many ways to do it.
First, don’t let anybody talk you into the fact that you have to pay somebody to do this. Any method of getting a title, that’s possible, you can do yourself for free. Now, it doesn’t mean you shouldn’t pay somebody to assist you or for convenience, but don’t let anybody tell you that you have to pay because only they can do it or you can’t do it yourself. All of the methods for getting a title are open source, they’re public. You can do it on your own. In fact, all the instructions for all these methods are online. Our website has instructions on how to do it and there are YouTube videos that’ll walk you through it. So you don’t have to pay anybody. Now, if you want to pay somebody like you’d pay anybody to do a service for you, you can do that. But here’s the thing make sure that you know the method that’s best for you. A lot of times people will try to use some loophole or abandoned vehicle or mechanics lien when those will come back to bite them and they don’t always work.
There’s only one method for a title that always works and that’s a court-ordered title. That’s where you go right over the head of the DMV or the bureau or whatever it is in your state that issues titles. They have somebody that is the boss of them. And if you were getting the run-around from the DMV, then go over their head, bypass them, and go right to the court system. A lot of people are afraid to do a court order title or a deal with the court because they think it’s a lot of headaches. Well, think about it, how much worse could it be than dealing with the DMV? How long have you been dealing with the DMV dragging you around going back and forth giving you the runaround? It’s no worse than that.
In fact, the court is more efficient because they do these all the time. The DMV does not deal with problems on a regular basis. They normally deal with somebody who walks in with the right paperwork everything’s completed, everything’s correct, and they handle it. When it’s a problem for the DMV that’s an outlier. That’s not something they’re used to dealing with. It’s not even something they want to deal with. On the other hand, a court is an agency that deals with problems all the time. In fact, everything that comes to the court is a problem. So they know how to deal with this and they can tell the DMV what to do. The court’s order forces the DMV to do exactly what it says on that paper. So if you want a court order to tell the DMV to give you a title, that’s what they have to do.
So don’t be afraid to use that process. There are other processes that are also very good, like a bonded title. There are eight states that don’t do it, so make sure you’re in a bonded state. But it’s a great way to get a title. You can also try to contact the prior owner. That’s a good way but sometimes that takes too long. Don’t try to get fancy with things like mechanics lien, abandoned vehicles, or loopholes because they don’t always work, 30-40 % of the time those titles don’t even work, and they get rejected. You’re not going to find out until you try. You might be out a lot of money and a lot of time, just to find out that what you’re trying to do isn’t going to work. You go to court and do a court order title, whatever that court signs off on your paperwork, the DMV has to do it. They can’t reject it.

If you find yourself here, chances are you’re wrestling with the VT010 Vin Verification Form, likely linked to the Vermont registration loophole. The burning question is, how do you successfully fill it out? Whether you’ve received the package from us with instructions or you’re going solo, this blog post aims to demystify the process.
Before diving into the form itself, it’s crucial to ascertain whether you actually need it. Many application packages don’t necessitate this form if the VD119 form has been correctly filled out and your vehicle fits the specified criteria. To avoid unnecessary hassle, ensure you genuinely require the VT010 form.
When tackling the form, note that only Section One requires your input. Here, you’ll provide your name, address, email, vehicle make, model, and other pertinent details. Interestingly, there’s no designated space for the VIN number in the section you complete. This omission is intentional, as the VIN verification must be carried out by authorized personnel.
Authorized personnel capable of completing the VIN verification are sworn law enforcement agents. This includes police officers, sheriffs, state patrol officers, or any individual with a badge and a gun affiliated with the DMV. The critical factor is that they must be sworn officers in your state.
It’s worth mentioning that some law enforcement agencies may erroneously believe they need specific certification for this task. In reality, any sworn officer can verify the VIN and confirm that it aligns with the paperwork. If you encounter resistance, clarify that there’s no requirement for an in-state form, and the sworn officer merely needs to attest to the VIN’s accuracy.
Before embarking on the VT010 form journey, make sure to watch our other videos to confirm whether you genuinely need the Vin verification. If you’ve completed the paperwork correctly and your vehicle aligns with the requirements, you might be able to skip this step. Save yourself the struggle and only dive into the VT010 if it’s absolutely necessary.
Remember, the key is to collaborate with authorized personnel who can sign the form and validate the VIN number. This guide aims to simplify the VT010 Vin Verification Form process, ensuring a smoother experience for those navigating the Vermont registration loophole.

So you bought a car on Facebook marketplace… Great! You probably found a good deal. These are cars that a lot of times haven’t been hit with a dealer markup because it’s a private seller and you have time to look at the vehicle, but there are a few downsides, right?
One downside is you don’t necessarily get a warranty. You also don’t get a dealer to back you up on your purchase, but in some situations, that might be a good thing. Also, you have to be responsible for the title paperwork. A lot of these cars are sold with no titles or if they are sold with the title sometimes you get the wrong paperwork. Maybe the title is void. Maybe the title has errors or damage. A lot of buyers that purchase a vehicle on Facebook marketplace find that they have title problems when transferring that vehicle to their name. What do you do about that?
Well, first of all when you buy the vehicle make sure that you get a good valid legal title from the seller and match up the name that’s on the title with the name on their driver’s license. Make sure the person selling you the vehicle is actually the person who is the legal owner, not a flipper, curbstoner, or somebody who’s doing title jumping. Even if you’ve done that there still could be issues where if the person got a duplicate title and the one you have is void, or there’s a lien on it you could run into problems. If that’s the case you have some options, you could do a bonded title for your vehicle or you can do a court-ordered title for your vehicle.
So if you run into title problems from Facebook marketplace, you do have some options. However, try to avoid them in the first place because it’ll just cost you time and money chasing around a title when the seller is supposed to give you good paperwork in the first place so you don’t have to get the run-around from the DMV and have to worry if you’re ever going to have that pink slip in your name or get the vehicle transfer to you legally.
Congratulations on snagging a great deal on a car through Facebook Marketplace! It’s a platform where many private sellers list their vehicles, often without the dealer markup. While you may have had the luxury of inspecting the car thoroughly before the purchase, there are a few downsides to be mindful of.
To avoid future headaches, follow these proactive measures when buying a car on Facebook Marketplace:
If, unfortunately, you encounter title problems after your Facebook Marketplace purchase, all is not lost. Here are a couple of options:
While these options can help you navigate title problems, the best strategy is to avoid them altogether. Insist on receiving proper paperwork from the seller, ensuring a smooth transfer process. Don’t let title issues become a time-consuming and costly affair. Prioritize clear communication with the seller, verify the title’s authenticity, and enjoy a seamless transition of ownership.
Navigating the world of private car sales demands vigilance, but with the right precautions, your Facebook Marketplace car purchase can be a rewarding experience.
