When using a bank check/certified check/cashier's check, just call the bank and they'll indicate whether the check is valid or not. Use the phone number from the bank's website, and make sure it's a known/local/regional/national bank. I did this and they were very nice about validating the check amount and name on the check. The check cleared overnight.
I had a conversation with a family member about some of these points. 4:10 The BUYER is not getting the car until the cash is legit or the funds clear at the bank. If they are serious about the car, they can wait 3-4 days... I'll even deliver the car to them if needed, like Carvana, LOL!
Primo Number One rule#. Don't hand over the keys, until the money hits your actual account from the fully identified individual. Wish you were in Melbourne, Australia.
I’m a female and am unsure if I should allow the buyer go for a test drive on my Honda CRV 2018. The car is still a baby so why going for a test drive? I’m uncomfortable to be in a car with a stranger…
Thanks for the information but what if when you try to find the value or even search the VIN its listed as not available (due to the car being a classic)?
anyone who sells a car in empty lot or not at their address is a curbstoner or scammer of some kind. Cameras in a parking lot won't do much good once the scammer is long gone.
