Selling a semi without being titled to the person selling it.

List the truck for sale. Then your brother would put his info on the title where the seller info goes. Your brother signs the title and gives it to the buyer along with a bill of sale. The buyer drives away in the truck. The buyer will then do title work is their home county/state.

 

What year, make, model is the truck? How is it powered? How many miles etc. How about a couple of pictures? One of us might be willing to make it our problem.

 

Are there fees in TX for not getting the title in his name within 30 days? What about 2290 not being paid? If I were truck shopping I wouldn’t think about buying this truck until your brother cleaned up his own mess first.

 

If he signed the title he needs to retitle it to be able sell it, should be able to go down and pay the title fee without reg/insurance

a commercial/non irp plate can also be done if he does have to do more

 

Boy, you are not listening.

Tell your mom to call the cops if it is in Texas, the cops will come out, file a report, and tow the truck away - it is that simple.

The truck is considered abandoned, under Texas law she has the right to have it removed by the cops after 48 hours.

YOUR BROTHER DOES NOT NEED INSURANCE TO SELL THE TRUCK.

HE SELLS THE TRUCK, PROVIDES A BILL OF SALE WITH THE TITLE, PUTS IN IT HIS INFORMATION AND A STATEMENT OF WHERE AND WHEN HE BOUGHT IT AND THAT'S ALL THAT IS NEEDED.

 

It probably needs to be insured so whoever buys it can test drive it, take it to a mechanic, ect... Im sure the DOT does not require it for the SALE, but it still needs insurance to be driven on a public road.

I aint buying a used truck without driving it and having it looked at. Are you?

 

2 years back taxes. Might be different by state.

Some states require inspection for vehicles transferring states.

People buy vehicles all the time and never license them for one reason or another. They just turn around and sell it.

 

What kind of truck is it and how much does he want for it?
