What do I need to sell my car in Oregon?
I’m in the market for a new car in Oregon. Rather than trade my old car in, I’m going to sell it privately to maximize the price I get. What documents do I need to sell my car in Oregon?

If you decide to sell your car rather than trade it in, you can make hundreds or even thousands of dollars more. If you have patience, it’s often the better option. Once you take out an ad, here’s what you need to sell a car in
Oregon
when you have a buyer lined up:- If you’ve paid off your loan, you’re going to need the lienholder (lender) to sign the title.
- Next, prepare a bill of sale. Although not legally required in Oregon, the bill of sale can make the process easier for the buyer to transfer the title.
- Fill out the back of the title to transfer it to the seller. You’ll also need an odometer reading.
- Remove your license plates and notify the DMV of the sale.
Since you’re buying a new car, remember that you need to switch your car insurance to the new vehicle.
