We sell the car under the new rules. Documents and algorithm for selling a car. Step by step guide to buying and selling a car

The law allows the sale of cars. The process must be designed accordingly. This year, the current legislation has undergone major changes. This was done so that the existing methods of fraud became impossible to implement. Not all drivers are aware of the adjustments made. Experts advise figuring out in advance how to buy and sell a car under the new rules in 2020.

Today, you can sell your own car on your own or by general power of attorney. The transaction is concluded on the basis of a contract of sale.

In the process of carrying out the actions, it will be necessary to prepare a package of documentation. The implemented machine must be re-registered to the new owner. In this case, there is no need for deregistration. There is also a range of other innovations. To find out all of them, you should familiarize yourself with the current information in advance. We will talk further about how the car is sold according to the new rules, about the package of documents that will need to be prepared, as well as about the features of registering the vehicle.

Today, you can arrange the sale of a car in two ways - using a standard sale and purchase transaction and by general power of attorney. In the first situation, the seller and the buyer enter into an agreement between themselves in a simple written form. The mechanism for selling a car under a general power of attorney is simple. A document is drawn up regulating the fact of the transfer of rights of one of the parties to a third party. It will act on behalf of the seller or buyer. The procedure for selling a car between individuals under a general power of attorney is associated with a number of additional nuances and risks. The likelihood of fraud increases. Therefore, it is highly not recommended to purchase a car by general power of attorney.

Before you sign a contract for the sale of a car, you should find out if the previous owner of the vehicle is going to keep license plates. If yes, then the person must contact the traffic police and draw up an application in accordance with the established rules. The seller and buyer can then proceed directly to the sale procedure. The fact confirming the conclusion of the transaction is the contract of sale of the car. It does not require notarization. The transaction is concluded in a simple written form.

The law does not impose restrictions on the frequency of implementation and the time of the sale of vehicles. Any citizen has the right to draw up and sign any number of contracts during the year.

If the parties find it difficult to independently draw up a contract for the sale of a car, you can contact a lawyer. The specialist will draw up the document in accordance with the established rules. However, a fee will be required for its services. In the process of processing the transaction, it is necessary to prepare a package of documents.

The vehicle owner must provide:

  • passport of a citizen of the Russian Federation;
  • registration certificate.

The list of papers for buyers is smaller. A person acting in this role must present a passport and purchase an OSAGO policy. The law allows you to enter information about the buyer in the current policy of the seller, if such an operation is provided for by the contract concluded with the insurer. The information will be included in the TCP, as well as in the registration certificate.

The contract for the sale of a new vehicle is drawn up in 3 copies. It must be supplemented by the act of acceptance and transfer of the vehicle. The seller and the buyer involved in the transaction receive a copy of the contract. 3 copies are provided to the traffic police. It is required during the registration process of the car. Information about the buyer will be entered in the TCP. The law does not impose special requirements for the specifics of drawing up a contract of sale. However, the paper regulating the transaction must comply with generally accepted rules for document exchange.

When filling out the form of a contract for the sale of a new vehicle, you need to take into account the following rules:

  • the term for the transfer of the vehicle begins to be calculated from the moment the agreement is concluded;
  • information in the document should be reflected as fully as possible;
  • it is necessary to indicate data on the documents for the car - the registration certificate and the title. This will subsequently simplify the procedure for removal and registration;
  • the price of the car must be indicated in numbers and in words;
  • it is necessary to fix the list of additional items that the seller transfers along with the car.

In the contract itself, the parties indicate the rights and obligations of each other. Compiling paperwork on your own can be problematic. Therefore, experts advise using a ready-made sample document and focusing on step-by-step instructions. This will avoid mistakes.

Vehicle registration procedure

When the registration of the purchase and sale of the car is completed, you will need to complete the registration procedure. The action falls on the shoulders of the new owner of the car. He is obliged, within ten days from the date of conclusion of the contract, to apply to the traffic police for the procedure.

To register a purchase, you need to have a package of documents with you, the list of which includes:

  • a completed application for contacting the traffic police;
  • PTS auto;
  • OSAGO policy;
  • registration certificate;
  • a copy of the contract of sale of the vehicle with the signatures of the parties;
  • receipts confirming the payment of state duty.

The state duty consists of several parameters. A person who decides to buy a car will have to transfer funds to the state treasury for the title, registration certificate and license plates. In total, you have to pay 2000 rubles. If the car still has old license plates, you do not need to provide funds for their re-acquisition. In this situation, the amount of the state duty will be reduced to 500 rubles.

In the process of re-registration of the car, the traffic police officer will inspect it, and the inspector will check the application. Then the new owner will get the title back. The document will be affixed with the seal of MREO. In addition, a registration certificate and license plates are provided if they are updated.

Do you need transit numbers?

Last year there were changes in the rules for removing and registering a vehicle. The detailed decision is due to the fact that the use of transit numbers issued upon the transfer of the car provided the citizen with the opportunity to evade taxes.

Today, you can travel with temporary plates only in order to avoid customs clearance. Registration can be done without withdrawal.

This allows you to reduce the amount of time for the procedure. Additionally, the new owner of the vehicle has the right to keep the old car numbers.

Additional car selling features

If there is no space for making an entry in the TCP, the document must be updated before the conclusion of the contract. The cost of the service is 500 rubles. You can pay the state duty at the bank or at the terminals. Details for the operation can be obtained on the website of the traffic police or during a personal appeal to the office of the organization. Under the new rules, the contract for the sale of a new car must contain an exact indication of the date of its conclusion. The transfer of the vehicle must be carried out on the basis of a signed contract. The seller must transfer the registration certificate and the title to the buyer.

What documents are needed to sell a car and how to draw up a deal correctly

Spring comes to our cities, and you came to my blog, so hello! Today we will talk about documents.

Are you sure that you know exactly what documents are needed to sell the car, how to fill them out correctly and what to do with them later? If you are not very, or not sure at all, then it is better to read this article. The seller of a used (BU) car is obliged to clearly understand how the deal should go on the “paper” side and what is necessary for its conclusion. In general, I will show you how to do everything without "jambs".

After all, what is our private car? For us, yes - a means of transportation. But from an official point of view, it is personal movable property. Do you catch the difference? That is, a car is far from the level of a household iron, and its legal registration should be appropriate.

The first thing I want to clarify is that now in Russia there are updated rules for the sale of cars, which have been operating since 2013. With these new rules, bureaucrats intend to simplify our lives in general, and the entire procedure for selling a car from our hands in particular.

In these rules, nothing has changed dramatically over the past three years, but there were only various “finishing” of the identified flaws of the creators from the art of sculpting normative documentation. For 2016, all the same innovations continue to operate:

  • There was no need for a mandatory change of numbers (registration plates - RZ) and obtaining transit (temporary) RZ cars when selling it;
  • There was an opportunity to keep their "native" numbers for themselves, selling the car to the buyer with "transits";
  • The obligatory deregistration of vehicles with the traffic police before its implementation has been abolished;
  • The norm of obligatory notarial or legal certification of the Purchase and Sale Agreement has been removed;
  • The diagnostic card is now valid for all car owners until the last day of its validity inclusive.

You can also get visual information on the listed new rules from this video:

So, where does it all start with regard to documents? With a verbal agreement, of course. You, as a seller, must be prepared for the caution of the buyer and for the fact that he may ask you to perform some "extra" actions in terms of any security checks on the proposed purchase. Take it easy - there is nothing reprehensible.

In the process of preliminary negotiations, you will agree on a meeting at which the car will be preliminarily inspected and evaluated and your person will be preliminarily studied for belonging to the outbid caste or to the order of scammers.

To do this, the buyer will need your personal documents and documents for the car. It’s better not to refuse to provide them under any pretext: people may suspect something is wrong and the deal may immediately fail - there are plenty of such cases. Once, the buyers left only because the seller had been looking for a “pink card” (CTC) lying somewhere in the depths of the purse for a long time - they considered it suspicious.

What documents are needed?

  • Personal documents: you can show your passport or driver's license, but it's better to provide both - this will inspire more confidence;
  • Vehicle passport (PTS): the main document for the car;
  • Vehicle registration certificate (CTC).

And you don't just need to provide documents. They must meet certain pre-sale requirements. Below I will list these requirements, and you will read them very carefully - the inconsistency of any of the conditions may delay, complicate or terminate the transaction.

Requirements for documents provided by the car owner:

  • It is highly desirable that you be identified in all documentation as the identity of the owner;
  • There should be no procedural obstacles to registration (being on the wanted list, arrest, etc.);
  • Your car must correspond to the data indicated about it in the documents and be without signs of interruption of aggregate and body numbers;
  • The car must be with Russian certification and without cardinal structural alterations;
  • For cars produced from 09.2012, an entry in the TCP about the contribution to the recycling fee is required;
  • The TCP must have at least one free field for entering new data and it is highly desirable that this be the original, and not its duplicate;
  • All documentation provided must be reliable and comply with the laws of the Russian Federation.

Of course, it is quite possible that something and somewhere may not correspond to something, and you should adequately and cheerfully explain these points right away, and not expect inconsistencies to emerge on their own.

Keep in mind that the buyer, having previously inspected the car and your documents, then, most likely, will break through the information received through the open databases of the websites "State traffic inspectorate", "Bailiffs" and "", where any concealed information on the car can easily be opened and its owner.

Form of electronic insurance policy

But that is not all.

The buyer is also obliged to provide you with a personal passport for review, and in relation to him, the issue of OSAGO insurance (compulsory motor third party liability insurance) must be closed, without which a private car is prohibited from moving. This can be solved in the following ways:

  • The seller writes the buyer on his insurance policy;
  • If there is an unexpired diagnostic card or MOT coupon, then the buyer can take out insurance for himself;
  • If the car needs a technical inspection, then it is possible to issue temporary insurance for up to twenty days to undergo MOT.

What else? You must determine the fate of license plates in advance: whether to keep the old license plates for yourself, or to give them away along with the car. If your numbers are nice to you and you leave them, then you need to submit an appropriate application to the traffic police about this. Then your “lucky signs” will be accepted there and they will watch over their safety for half a year. If during this time you get back on the wheels, then the old license plates will be returned to you for their registration and installation.

Some additional nuances you will be told in this video:

Procedure for filling out documents

The nice thing is that the procedure for filling out the necessary documentation is not complicated and can be dealt with quickly: if unforeseen problems do not arise, then it will not take more than half an hour. Naturally, you need to monitor literacy and accuracy when filling in the data - do not spare clean forms if anything.

Attention! Remember: carelessly completed documents that have legal force can be successfully challenged in court as invalid!

The algorithm for preparing documents is as follows:

First you need to print out the standard forms relevant for the current year for the necessary documents: these are the forms of the Sale and Purchase Agreement and the forms of the Vehicle Acceptance and Transfer Certificate - print with a margin, five to six each. It is also desirable to print out typical filling patterns, then things will go more fun.

Next, start entering data into the graphs. This is the most dreary part of the design: you need to fill out six forms - three acts and three DKP (Contract of Sale). In principle, you can get by with one DCT, which in itself is also an act of transfer, although a separate act of transfer is legally more correct, but its absence is not critical. You can write by hand, in a naturally legible handwriting, without corrections (it is best to use a purple gel pen with a thin sting).

When you fill out everything, you must carefully read all the documents to identify inaccuracies and the identity of the information entered. If everything is fine, then the documentation is signed by both parties.

By the way, you can fill out these papers online, and then print them and sign them. There is for this from the well-known site "auto.ru".

After that, the buyer's data are entered in the columns of the free field of the TCP, on which the preliminary preparation of the documentation will be considered completed. It's not all that difficult, is it?

Next, the buyer's money must be exchanged for a package of documentation from the seller and car keys. This procedure itself can be performed according to various scenarios, which I described in the article "How to check money when selling a car." It can be added here that sometimes the parties, in addition to the specified documents, can also draw up a financial receipt in two copies, which specifies in detail who, when, how, to whom, what and where he intends to pay.

When you receive payment for the car, you must record this in the appropriate box of the DCT and then give the buyer the following:

  • Vehicle Passport (PTS);
  • Vehicle registration certificate (CTC);
  • Compulsory third party liability insurance policy (OSAGO);
  • Car ignition keys.

You have one of the copies of the DCT set in your hands, and the money you get.

At this point, the documentary and procedural issue of the transaction is exhausted, and it is considered completed. All other actions for registering a car are the responsibility of the buyer, who must do this within ten days.

If this did not happen, then you yourself can apply for deregistration of the sold car and then the STS of the car in your name will be canceled, and the new one will receive a fine for sluggishness. For all sorts of unforeseen cases, you can exchange phones with the buyer, this will not decrease.


Selling a car by proxy

I would not call this type of sale in the full sense of the word, because even if the general form of power of attorney is handed over to the buyer, the original owner still retains ownership. As, however, and the right to receive fines, taxes and various other delights "for that guy."

But I will not discuss all the advantages and disadvantages of selling by proxy in the format of this article, but will only tell you how it is done. After all, this option of mutual settlements in the secondary car markets is very widespread both in Russia and in Kazakhstan, in Ukraine and other countries of the near abroad (CIS). Especially when buying and selling in the budget and "sobbing" segment.

In general, you can entrust a car to another person with the most ordinary power of attorney, but in car markets it is customary to use a general form that gives extended rights to a trustee (buyer) in relation to a particular car. This very person can even sell (re-entrust) the trusted car to another person without the consent and knowledge of the principal (owner).

A general power of attorney is drawn up unilaterally:

  • The principal fills out a general power of attorney form;
  • Signs the form in the notary's office and puts down the date;
  • The power of attorney is certified by a notary.

Attention! The default term of a power of attorney is one year. But in the document, the appointment of the term of the power of attorney is not limited.

The process of selling through this document is very simple: a mutual financial receipt is written in two copies, you receive the money, and the buyer is given a power of attorney and car keys. As they say, "quickly and angrily."


  • Be prepared for the fact that the buyer may ask you to remove the car for sale from the register before concluding a deal - this is done to insure against the purchase of arrested, wanted and criminal cars.
  • If you have a duplicated Title, then get convincing evidence of the legal cleanliness of your car in advance, notify the buyer yourself about the duplicate and assist him in his checks.
  • The seller does not need to pay tax if his car is older than three years, and also if it is younger, but sold at a price less than the one for which it was bought. In the latter case, you need to submit a declaration indicating how much the car was purchased for.

Summarizing

So, dear friends, for today I am completing a review of paperwork when selling a car and I can highlight a few main general points for you:

  • The owner's car documentation must be in full order before sale;
  • The joint drafting and execution of the documents of the Sale and Purchase Agreement must be careful and accurate;
  • It is better to help the buyer figure everything out in order to speed up the process of successful completion of the transaction.

Do you have any more questions about this topic? Ask them in the comments and based on them I will supplement this article. And yet, did the innovation about the new rules for the sale have a positive effect on you?

I say goodbye until the next post. Share my articles through social buttons, comment on what you read and subscribe to updates.

I wish you successful sales!

    Good afternoon! I'm going to buy a car, but the seller did not re-register the car for himself. Those. in the TCP there is only the data of the previous owner and his signature on the transfer of the car to a new (current seller). There is no seller data in the PTS. There is a DKP (according to the seller, I corresponded every 10 days (registration deadlines have already been violated)).

    Here is the question, with whom should I enter into PrEP now? With the seller or the previous owner? Please tell me the next steps.

    Good evening! I'm going to sell a car by proxy, my close relative's car, he lives abroad and physically cannot be present at the transaction, so this is the way of selling. A question of this kind: whose signature of the previous owner in the TCP is mine or should it be there? (the power of attorney says that I, as a trustee, can perform all sorts of actions in relation to the car, including signing for the owner, but still explain). By the way, the power of attorney is ordinary, not general. And the second question: in addition to the DCT and PTS and STS, should I give the buyer this power of attorney? or a copy of it? Thank you in advance for your response

    Nina

Alexander:

3. The cost of OSAGO does not depend on where you will buy the policy. It is calculated depending on the place of your registration. within 10 days is possible.

4. Write the location where the transaction actually takes place.

5. You also need a vehicle passport (PTS).

Good luck on the roads!

hello, i have a question. when drawing up a contract of sale, I indicated the full name of the seller from the passport, but it (due to the change of surname - she got married) does not correspond to the full name on those passports ... what to do? will there be any problems with registration in the traffic police?

Will. The full name in the PTS must match the full name in the DCT.

Ekaterina-55

Hello! We buy a car in another region, we will change the numbers accordingly. When registering a car in the traffic police, an OSAGO policy is required. That is, the old numbers will be indicated in OSAGO?

Good afternoon, tell me how to step by step register the car for yourself with the registration of the sale and the presence of the seller directly at the traffic police, so that it acts as a guarantor, in which case. The seller does not have an OSAGO policy in force.

Ekaterina, Hello.

When buying OSAGO, it will indicate the old number. After changing the registration data and receiving new numbers, you should re-apply to the insurance company so that a new number is entered into the policy.

Good luck on the roads!

Scorp333, Hello.

Officially, the traffic police does not provide such services and cannot be a guarantor.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello! I bought a car but nothing was written in the TCP. Can the traffic police fill it out themselves?

the previous owner had to sign the TCP (well, since you didn’t sign, what will you do), they fill in the rest in the traffic police themselves and you only sign as the new owner.

Hello! Please tell me, is it necessary to show the car for inspection at the traffic police? Is it necessary to have insurance to register a car with the traffic police?

Darya, Hello.

Buying insurance and inspecting the car are mandatory.

Good luck on the roads!

Maxim-136

Good afternoon! I bought a car under the PrEP, I haven’t registered it yet, if I register my thoughts for my wife, can I do this if the seller concluded the PrEP with me? Thanks.

Maksim, Hello.

To register a car for your wife, you need to draw up a contract of sale or a donation agreement between you and your spouse. At the same time, the traffic police will have to provide all existing agreements (DCT between the seller and you, DCT between you and your wife).

Good luck on the roads!

Good afternoon, I'm buying a car through a friend, I'm in another city. What is the best way to make a purchase, a friend will issue a dkp for himself and then give it to me or in another way?

Hello, Linar.

1. If your friend first buys a car and then sells it to you for the same amount, then at the beginning of next year he will have to file a tax return. There is no need to pay tax.

2. You can make a notarized power of attorney, in the text of which you allow a friend to purchase a car on your behalf. In this case, the friend will sign the contract on your behalf.

3. Can negotiate with friend and seller as follows. You draw up, sign and send to a friend. After that, the seller signs the contract, and the friend gives him the money.

Choose the option that is more convenient.

Good luck on the roads!

Mikhail-150

I work 4/4 shifts. I earn, in principle, normally, I do not complain. But six months ago, my wife and I had a second child and the money was not quite enough. My wife is on maternity leave, so I decided that I needed to find some kind of alternative part-time job that I could combine with my main job and not fall off my feet. Decided that taxiing is a great solution. It remains only to buy an inexpensive car, the most suitable for this. Long searched the internet for a normal car. As you understand, I bought a car there, which was suitable for the unstable life of a taxi driver. Everything went well. Documents are in order. Surprisingly, I'm happy.

So, the story about how you either bought a patent, entered into an agreement with some gang for the provision of dispatching services, how you registered in some database, when will it be?

Good day!

Say I’m buying a car from a person who didn’t register it and drove without it, as a result, the numbers and certificate were seized.

What are the options to register it with the traffic police, there is no insurance and technical inspection.

Oleg, Hello.

If the documents and numbers are seized precisely because the new owner did not register the car, then there will be no special problems.

When contacting the traffic police, you will need your contract of sale, as well as the original contract between the previous owners. OSAGO You can buy on the basis of TCP.

Good luck on the roads!

That is, in your opinion, money can be paid before receiving the car? Or immediately after registration of the DCT - is it safe for the buyer? You know, I don’t want to throw away almost a million))) And I like the car so much and passes through all the bases (even the mileage is not twisted))), which is already strange)

Paul, theoretically, you can agree with the seller, for example, that you will transfer money to him in a day / week / month and draw up this period in the contract. However, the seller is also parting with a million (in the form of a car), so it is unlikely that he will agree. Because the likelihood of running into a scammer on the part of the buyer also exists.

What danger do you see in transferring money?

Sergey-583

Good afternoon! The wife under the contract gives me a car (2012 onwards). In OSAGO (05/04/2018, fresh) we are entered together.

1. To register with the traffic police, do I need to re-register OSAGO or can I do this after registration?

Thanks in advance for your reply, Sergey.

Sergei, Hello.

1. For registration, you will need a new OSAGO policy, where you will be indicated as the owner of the vehicle.

2. It's possible. Numbers are currently saved by default, unless you flag on your application that you need other numbers. Please note that the numbers must not be damaged.

Good luck on the roads!

1. I am buying a car. If he already has an OSAGO policy (for an unlimited number of persons admitted to driving a vehicle) and a diagnostic card for this year, is it possible not to buy a new OSAGO policy or is it mandatory?

2. If there is no more space left in the vehicle passport for entering new owners. Is it possible that not the seller, but the buyer (so that the seller does not dangle once again) the car went to the traffic police with all the documents of the old TCP and there he would be given a new TCP with all the changes?

1. A new policy is needed, where the new owner will be indicated as the insured. Theoretically, the insured can apply to the UK to make changes to the current policy, namely, change the owner.

Hello! I am the owner of a car driven by my ex-husband, while driving for a long time without taking out insurance, without any OSAGO policy at all. I want to sell him a car. The fact that at the same time he will have to buy an OSAGO policy, where he will be the owner, is understandable. But we won't be able to close the deal if the car isn't insured before the sale, right? Can I get an OSAGO policy for a certain minimum period in order to save money? For example, for a month or a week?

Julia, Hello.

But we won't be able to close the deal if the car isn't insured before the sale, right?

The presence of insurance from the previous owner does not matter in this case. You can sell a car without OSAGO. Those. You don't need to take out insurance. Just fill in.

Good luck on the roads!

Hello! I am a citizen of Kazakhstan, I am in Moscow ... I want to buy a car and register it for my sister, a citizen of the Russian Federation, who now lives in Kazakhstan ... can I do this by proxy written there and where to get a sample? In the future, I'm going to go to Kazakhstan on this car! Thanks for the answer!

Zhenya, Hello.

Good luck on the roads!

And can you clarify why, in this case, a notarized power of attorney would be needed? Why not handwritten?

wowick, Thank you for your comment. You are right, a handwritten power of attorney is suitable for this transaction, it is not necessary to contact a notary.

Good luck on the roads!

Sergey-721

Over the years, a lot of sad stories have accumulated in the legal forum related to the acquisition of vehicles and the subsequent problems for the unfortunate purchasers of such vehicles.
I was repeatedly asked to bring together in a brief memo the accumulated experience of analyzing these problems, which I did. Everything that is written here is my personal opinion, which I, in no case, want to impose on anyone. Of course, this memo is not a 100% guarantee against problems, but I think it will help minimize the risks associated with the purchase of vehicles
In general, think for yourself, everyone has their own head on their shoulders.
_________________

So, let's begin. Let me emphasize right away that this is not so much about the technical condition of the purchased vehicle (although a little about that), but about how to protect yourself from possible legal problems. Or minimize their consequences.

Strictly speaking, schemes for the acquisition of vehicles (TC) in the second-hand market can be reduced to the following main schemes:

1. Purchase from resellers

An example of the main schemes by which vehicles are purchased from resellers:

A) Repurchase gives you a TCP and a contract of sale (DCT), in which he signs for the seller with the signature of this very seller (that is, not his own). For obvious reasons, legally the previous owner does not sell you anything, and in case of problems, the acquirer is not protected from them in any way.

B) Repurchase transfers to you Title and DKP with the signatures of the previous owner already in advance. Of course, the acquirer cannot control the purity of the transaction and, accordingly, is also not immune from future possible problems.

C) Repurchase operates according to the so-called. "general power of attorney" (in fact, it is more correct to say - "notarized") and signs the documents himself as a representative of the seller. Of all the various schemes for acquiring vehicles through outbids, this is the most correct. However, such a scheme also does not provide legal guarantees to the purchaser, since the power of attorney can be fake (as well as the passport of the outbid itself). And then, in case of problems with such a purchased vehicle, the purchaser is also not legally protected. He will lose both the car and the money.

In my opinion, the acquisition of a vehicle through outbidding is the most risky and therefore the least expedient way to buy an iron horse. For the risks are serious, and there are very few options for protection. The purchaser obviously falls into a disadvantageous position, because the reseller himself still needs to be found and the money paid must be recovered from him. It's long and difficult. And often it’s impossible at all - for example, if citizens act as resellers on fake documents (when they sell a car with a criminal past - stolen, with broken numbers, etc.)

2. Acquisition directly from the owner

Purchasing directly from the owner significantly reduces the possible risks. The buyer can make inquiries about the owner and thereby reduce subsequent risks. For no one in their right mind will buy anything from a muddy person (organization). In case of possible problems (for example, broken numbers, a pledged car, a stolen car, etc.), the purchaser will be able to demand a refund of the amount paid through the court.

3. Acquisition through car dealerships (agency agreements, commission agreements, commission shops, etc.)

Often, according to such schemes, cars are purchased under the trade-in program, or simply salons act as agents (commission agents). According to the degree of risk, such a scheme is between the acquisition from the owner (minimal risk) and the acquisition through outbidding (maximum risk).
Of particular note here is the purchase under a commission agreement. These are the kind of deals that should be avoided like fire!
For according to them, the commission agent ("salon") will be the obligated person to you, from which, in the event of a conflict car, in 99% of cases nothing will be returned. It is easy to understand that this is how a significant part of criminal cars are implemented.

As a rule, salons work with real owners, but when buying, you should definitely pay attention to who the salon has an agreement with - again, with the owner or reseller. Often, the salons themselves sell as resellers - simply indicating the new owner in the PTS (see above for the repurchase schemes). To do this, you need to demand from the manager of the salon an agreement between the salon and the owner. In the event of a transaction, demand to transfer to you a copy of such an agreement certified by the salon.
If the salon refuses to comply with such requirements, then it is better to refuse to purchase such a vehicle in this salon.
It should also be added about the various associated risks of acquiring a vehicle through a salon - for example, a salon goes bankrupt and does not transfer the money paid to the previous owner. As a result, the car is confiscated from the last owner through the court, and such an unfortunate owner himself simply cannot get money from the bankrupt salon. So, for example, it was with the famous car dealership "Vorontsov-Motors" in Novosibirsk.
Another important point is that if we are talking specifically about a commission agreement, then the salon itself acts as the seller under it, respectively, in case of problems with the purchased car, you will have to solve them with the salon, and not the owner of the vehicle. Except in a number of cases when, for example, a previously stolen car is for sale.
Recently, there have been several high-profile cases of outright fraud by selling cars through thrift stores - the so-called. "Oryol theme", "scammers of the Katz brothers", when, as a result, after some time, law enforcement agencies confiscated freshly bought cars from buyers.
My opinion - it is better to avoid buying an expensive car according to this scheme if possible.

This is with regard to vehicle acquisition schemes.

Now about the main risks associated with the vehicles themselves.

1) The vehicle may be stolen. Of course, they will take it away from you. Sometimes, however, they do not take it away and leave it under safe receipt. But in the future they will still be taken away if the victim does not express a different will.
There is another option when the car is stolen abroad and is on the wanted list for INTERPOL. In this case, in 99.9% of situations, foreign victims do not express a desire to return the car to themselves (it is understandable - insurance has already been received). Then the car remains with the Russian purchaser, but its registration is canceled (refuses to be registered)

2) The vehicle may be the subject of a pledge. In this case, it will be foreclosed in favor of the mortgagee and you will lose this vehicle

Details about the problem of "mortgage cars" see here
https://website/law/t1151568871.html

3) The vehicle may end up with broken numbers (or rather, changed markings). Such a vehicle will not be taken away (if they do not find the victim, from whom the car was stolen), but they will not be registered with the traffic police

4) The vehicle may be the so-called. "cut" (framework, skeleton, double, etc.) - in this case, you are also guaranteed problems with its registration and the prohibition of access to road traffic

5) Separately, it is worth mentioning such a scheme of deception as "exchange by concluding a PrEP" (especially popular lately)
its essence is as follows
for example, you have found a car variant you like
its seller (most often outbid) persuades you to exchange "key to key". And he proposes to draw up two contracts of sale. That is - they sell you one car, and you - another (your own). Moreover, for reliability, your car is bought for a "friend" or "relative" of that seller.
in the DCT, that seller indicates a small amount. Further, it turns out that he sold you a problematic car (cut, broken markings, stolen car, mortgage, etc.). And here is the biggest problem - you will not return your car - because it was sold under another transaction (and even for reliability - it is done to a third party - such as "friend, brother, matchmaker", etc.).
and nothing shines on you back.
but that singed car that you bought is just your headache. which the outbid has carefully shifted to you, thus getting rid of its problematic goods, in return having received a completely normal car.

6) Another risk - the so-called. "clean customs PTS" - cancellation of the registration of a car imported to an individual who subsequently declares that he did not import such a vehicle.

This import scheme is very popular in the Far East. Cunning sellers import cars on behalf of individuals to minimize their costs. At the same time, the buyer is lured with such arguments as "customs title", "car without mileage", "you will be the first real owner", etc. And, of course, all this with the use of traditional repurchase schemes with sales contracts "on behalf of the owner" ( see above)
Often, such a "first owner" is not even aware that a car was imported on his behalf, cleared by customs and subsequently sold to someone. He learns about it only when he receives a demand from the tax office to pay tax on the sale of a car and submit a declaration. Here everything is opened, the citizen goes to the traffic police and submits an appropriate application, the result of which is the termination of registration. As a result, the unfortunate end buyer of such a car ends up.

An example of judicial practice on this issue

7. Relatively new divorce scheme - cars allegedly with Belarusian or Kazakh numbers .
The sellers of such cars assure that everything is clean, the cars are supposedly registered in the countries of the Customs Union, and all just for the sake of a naive buyer buying such a crooked car "cheaply".
As a rule, these are cars imported according to the scheme "cut", "frame", "karpil", "skeleton". Sometimes it can even be smuggled cars. Especially such a scheme has become popular in the Far East. Of course, such machines have never been in either Belarus or Kazakhstan. They are sold according to standard repurchase schemes, offering the buyer a power of attorney on behalf of the Kazakh or Belarusian owner, a package of documents and the corresponding Kazakh or Belarusian numbers. Of course, as a rule, this is a fake, designed for a naive buyer and for the fact that foreign car databases are still difficult to access even for Russian law enforcement officers.
If you are offered a right-hand drive car with a similar Kazakh or Belarusian account, it will be a criminal car in 99% with all the ensuing consequences for you.
Here is an example of such a declaration

So, in fact, brief tips for purchasing a vehicle.

1. Before buying, carefully study the TCP, pay attention to all records and special marks. By special marks, you can often understand the history of the purchased car - were the numbered units replaced and when were they made (very important in the case of buying a "constructor"), whether duplicate titles were issued, whether the car was in problem regions (Buryatia, Ingushetia and a number of others)

2. Try to buy directly from the owner. It is then easier to sue the owner and it is easier to recover money from him if the purchased vehicle turns out to be problematic.
The owner must sign the contract in front of you.

3. Never buy under a sales contract scheme.

4. Buy it under a sale and purchase agreement (exchange agreement - if one vehicle is exchanged for another), and not under the notorious powers of attorney

5. The contract must specify the main parameters of the purchased vehicle (technical condition, mileage, broken-not broken, etc.). The more details you specify, the easier it will be to protect your rights later if the condition of the vehicle turns out to be inconsistent with what the seller promised you.

6. The contract of sale must necessarily indicate that the vehicle is not a subject of pledge and is not under any other encumbrance.

7. Carefully study the passport of the seller (owner, repurchase) for compliance with the personality of the seller and the documents for the vehicle (PTS, power of attorney, etc.). I also recommend checking the passport data for validity on the FMS website:

Sometimes it can be established that the seller is a debtor, which significantly increases the risks of the transaction.

8. The full cost of the vehicle must be indicated in the contract of sale, as well as in other ways (receipt, etc.) the full amount transferred to the seller must be confirmed. If the seller objects, you can safely say goodbye to him, you do not need this option.
The indication of the full price protects, first of all, the buyer. So in case of termination of the transaction (for example, you bought a mortgaged car or with broken numbers), you will be able to recover this amount by filing a lawsuit. If there are 10,000 rubles in the DKP, you will collect them at best.

If the option found is painfully good, the car is pleasant, but the buyer does not want to write the full cost in the DCT, that is, there is an option to convince him to do the following.
for example, you can make a monetary policy of thousands for 100 rubles. to the DCT - an additional agreement, where the sale amount is set to be real, for example, 600,000 rubles. Well, and, accordingly, two receipts - for 100 tr. and 500 tr. (with reference, which is transmitted under an additional agreement)
In the traffic police and tax authorities, everything is presented for 100 tr, and in the event of a conflict with the seller - already for the entire amount.
100 tr. This is just for illustration purposes. Of course, you should also know about property deductions) and about the procedure for paying tax by the seller (more on this below)
Well, in the receipts for the transfer of funds, it is imperative to indicate the full data (who to whom) and for which car the money is transferred (make, body number, engine, VIN).
If the seller does not agree to this option either, then you can safely send him on an erotic journey on foot and start looking for a new option

9. If you are offered a car exchange, then I advise you not to break the deal into parts (that is, two separate sales agreements), but to conclude exactly one exchange agreement. Otherwise, you can sell your car (normal) under one agreement, and purchase a problematic one under the second. As a result, you will not return your car, and the problematic one will remain your problem.

10. When buying, I strongly recommend checking the car for collateral. This, of course, is not a guarantee against possible problems, but in the event of a lawsuit with the seller, it will help to prove that you are a bona fide purchaser, which will significantly increase the chances of winning.

Checking can be done online here (service of the Federal Notary Chamber)

When buying, it is important for you that on the day of purchase of the vehicle in this register there is no record of its pledge!

You can also request an extract from the register of pledges of movable property from a notary.

BASES OF THE LEGISLATION OF THE RUSSIAN FEDERATIONABOUT THE NOTARY


Article 103.7. Issuance of an extract from the register of notifications of pledge of movable property

An extract from the register of notifications on the pledge of movable property may contain information about all notifications with a specific number specified in part six of Article 103.2 of these Fundamentals, or about all notifications in relation to a specific pledger. An extract from the register of notifications on the pledge of movable property may contain only up-to-date information about the pledge at a certain moment (short extract) or also contain information about all registered notifications on the basis of which it was formed (extended extract).
At the request of any person, the notary issues a brief extract from the register of notifications of pledge of movable property containing information, the list of which is established by paragraph 2 of part one of Article 34.4 of these Fundamentals. At the request of the pledgor or pledgee specified in the registered notice of pledge, or their representative, in relation to the relevant pledge, the notary issues a brief or extended extract from the register of notices of pledge of movable property, containing information, the list of which is established by parts one and two of Article 103.4 of these Fundamentals. This extract can be issued in the form of an electronic document signed by a qualified electronic signature of a notary.
(as amended by Federal Law No. 457-FZ of December 29, 2014)
Information that has become invalid in connection with the registration of notices of changes in collateral and notices of exclusion of information on collateral shall be reflected in the extract in such a way that it is clear that such information has become invalid.
The form of an extract from the register of notifications on the pledge of movable property and the procedure for the formation of this extract are approved by the federal justice body together with the Federal Notary Chamber

.

11. In the event that someone acts by proxy (as a representative) or "owns by proxy" or if a notarized power of attorney appears in the scheme in any way, then its validity can and should be checked on this resource Federal Notary Chamber

12. When buying, try to check the TCP and SRTS for police bases. As a rule, this is enough to avoid a problematic option.

Service for checking TCP on the Internet (not ideal, but sometimes helps)

13. When buying, carefully study the VIN code of the car (body number, if right-hand drive) and engine number.
Often, upon closer inspection, you can notice the handicraft performance of such markings, but it is better to let specialists do it. Do not regret 2-3 thousand rubles, but you can avoid losing much larger money

Example

Top number from a normal cruiser
the lower one is broken.
The lower VIN clearly shows how the first and second letters J have a different slope and execution, the letters T also differ - the lower bar has a different angle of inclination, the numbers "5" are also not identical.
With the factory marking, there can be no such differences!

IMPORTANT POINT - TRANSACTION PRICE AND TAX!

Don't be fooled by salespeople's admonitions that they will "get taxed"!
This is either a lie with the aim of further deception, or just the stupidity of sellers and ignorance of the law.

From the Tax Code of the Russian Federation

Article 220. Property tax deductions

1. When determining the size of the tax base in accordance with paragraph 3 of Article 210 of this Code, the taxpayer has the right to receive the following property tax deductions:
1) in the amounts received by the taxpayer in the tax period from the sale of residential houses, apartments, rooms, including privatized residential premises, dachas, garden houses or land plots and shares in the said property, owned by the taxpayer for less than three years, but not exceeding in total 1,000,000 rubles, as well as in amounts received in the tax period from the sale of other property owned by the taxpayer for less than three years, but not exceeding 250,000 rubles in total.

Instead of using the right to receive a property tax deduction provided for by this subparagraph, the taxpayer has the right to reduce the amount of his taxable income by the amount of expenses actually incurred and documented by him in connection with the receipt of these incomes, except for the sale by the taxpayer of his securities.

In other words - if you bought, for example, for a million rubles (you can document it) and sold it for no more than the same million, you do not get to pay tax!

Remember this and bring it to the sellers every time.
If they don’t want to do it according to the law and write the full price, send them out of the woods.
Your interests should be closer to you than his.

Do not take foreign registered cars!

They can also offer various "chocolate options" such as

BMW 3-Series, 2002

240 000 rub.

Engine: gasoline, 1800 cc
Transmission: mechanics
Drive: rear
Mileage in Russia: yes
Mileage, km: 112000
Steering wheel: right

Extras: Selling BMW 318ci in perfect condition, complete set has everything except leather, the car was imported from England 1 month ago, everything in it works exclusively, engine, running gear, interior everything is like a new car, multifunction steering wheel, native casting for 16 , parktronics, NOT cleared by customs, selling by gene. power of attorney, a full package of documents, you can ride without problems, there are those. inspection, insurance, call me to tell you everything.

The trick is that you can’t legally drive such cars! These are the norms of the customs legislation. The scammers sell similar cars to Pinocchio coupled with tales that "you can drive safely, everything will be OK." I assure you - then you will cry.
Such a topic began with the so-called. "Kyrgyz cars", then Lithuanian ones went and, finally, from the EU countries - "English, French" and so on
here's what happens next

Court confiscated uncleared Toyotas and Hondas from Novosibirsk residents

01.11.2012
The Leninsky District Court confiscated 10 non-cleared foreign cars that arrived in Novosibirsk from Kyrgyzstan.

According to the press service of the Siberian Operational Customs, 10 Novosibirsk residents lost foreign cars by court decision, in particular, Toyota Estima, Honda Stepwgn, Honda CR-V, Subaru Forester, Honda Saber, Toyota Altezza, Opel Omega, BMW 525, Mercedes-Benz C500.

As the customs officers established, ferrymen from Kyrgyzstan, crossing the border with Kazakhstan, declared cars for temporary import into the Customs Union (Russia, Kazakhstan and Belarus), but then sold uncleared cars to Novosibirsk about a quarter cheaper than their market value.

Theoretically, buyers could avoid confiscation by paying the required customs duties before going to court, but no one took advantage of this option. “The condition of the majority of foreign cars imported from Kyrgyzstan does not correspond to the Euro-4 environmental class. This means that such a car can be legally used only for dismantling for spare parts,” the message says.

In just 9 months of 2012, the Siberian operational customs recorded more than 160 illegal operations with uncleared cars from Kyrgyzstan.
Reference: For non-export of temporarily imported cars and illegal operations with them - and among them not only sale, but also another order, transfer of the right to use - the law provides for administrative liability: a fine of 1,500 to 2,500 rubles. with the possibility of confiscation (Article 16.18 and Part 2 of Article 16.24 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation).

Purchase technology (subject to changes in the registration rules):

1. Choose the vehicle you like, taking into account the above recommendations
2. Draw up a contract of sale in 3 copies, 2 of which remain with the buyer. If you conclude an exchange agreement, then it is better to draw up 4 copies (one for each party and one for the traffic police)
3. When drawing up documents for the purchase (exchange) of vehicles, take into account the relevant recommendations and risks outlined above
4. With one copy of the DKP, go to the traffic police registration unit that is close to you (or you can go to a remote one, to your liking) and submit an application for registration actions.

Hello! Today we will talk about how to sell a car.

In the life of every motorist, there comes a moment when the owner is forced to sell his "iron horse". But few people know how to do it as efficiently as possible - quickly and at the same time at a decent price. This issue has many nuances, which we will discuss in this material. So, how to profitably sell a car? Read the details in this article!

Before we get into the details of how to properly sell a car, here are some general tips and be sure to watch the video!

  1. The season affects the price of the car. Experts are inclined to believe that it is best to sell in the spring, but to buy in the winter. In the summer, when everyone is on vacation and in the country, finding a buyer will be very problematic. In general, the market is experiencing a decline in prices by 5-10%;
  2. It is better not to try to deceive the buyer. The fact that the meter breaks or twists will eventually come out anyway, providing you with considerable problems;
  3. Don't sell your car in installments. If the buyer does not have enough funds, he can always apply for a loan from a bank, or come up with another way.

Factors affecting the selling price

  • Brand or model;
  • Year of issue;
  • Mileage;
  • Equipment;
  • Manufacturer and country;
  • Gearbox type;
  • Rudder location;
  • Number of former owners;
  • Condition of the body and coating;
  • Clarity of the engine and gearbox;
  • Condition of optics and suspension;
  • Cleanliness in the cabin;
  • Operating conditions;
  • Additional options, restyling and airbrushing;
  • Battery, wheels and tires.

All those who have ever been involved in sales will unanimously say that pre-sale preparation of a car is a must. However, what should you pay attention to first of all?

Most often, buyers first of all pay attention to two important parameters: visible and audible defects. This category includes various dents, chips, cracks, as well as oil leaks and uneven engine operation. This is what needs to be fixed first. It will never be superfluous to polish the body (as well as the headlights) - the external shine and gloss attracts buyers. Chips should be painted over, and dents should be straightened.

Before you sell the car, fill in good gasoline - with it the engine will run smoother. Alternatively, it is worth using fuel with a higher octane rating. Be sure to replace the spark plugs and check the wiring. In most cases, after such work, the sound of the engine becomes much smoother. A fresh gasket will help to avoid a loud roar of the motor, which will scare off a potential buyer, and tightened belts will eliminate the whistle.

Should you wash your engine? Situational. If the car is already many years old, and its motor looks no different from a huge lump of dirt, then you should definitely wash it. You should not think that a washed engine will scare away buyers: according to the statistics of sellers, the number of buyers who do not like a washed engine is no more than those who do not like that it is dirty. Try to figure it out yourself - whether a clean engine can add value to the car or not.

Separately, it is worth touching the twisting of the odometer. In Russia, his testimony is rarely believed, so is it worth spending your money on correcting the testimony? Decide for everyone on their own. In any case, the aforementioned preparation should already help in selling the car at a high price.

Where and to whom to sell the car

There are several ways to quickly sell a car. Here are the most popular:

Relatives

The way is both good and bad. Among the obvious disadvantages, it is worth taking at least requests to drop the price in a related way, give installments, etc. And the problems found later will be remembered for a long time. You will still have to respond to such claims, both morally and financially - this is simply inevitable. But it will be possible to sell the car quickly enough, and the price should be very attractive.

Glass stickers

You can place an ad for the sale not only in the newspaper, but also on the car itself. A sticker with the word "For Sale" and a phone number - and here is the product as it is in front of the buyer. Every passer-by will be able to see the ad, but only in the place where the car is parked. The special charm of this method is that a potential buyer can immediately inspect the car for body defects, etc. One minus - with this method you have to walk on foot until the car is sold.

Automotive market

Every major city has its own car market today. Unfortunately, most often they are paid and you will have to pay a certain amount for a day of parking. On the other hand, you can always not only show yourself, but also look at others - choose an option for further purchase, argue about prices. Going to the market at least once will always be useful - there you can re-evaluate your own car closer to reality.

As for the usefulness of this method, it is difficult to judge. Someone sells the first time, someone sits there all weekend for several months, which turns into noticeable expenses.

There are two important nuances here: before going to the market, it is better to immediately clear the interior and trunk of personal items. It is possible that it will be possible to sell a used car today, and as a result, you will have to run around and think about where to attach everything. You should also beware of dealers - they will hover over the car, convincing you of its disgusting condition in an attempt to get a lower price. Stay away from such people, of course, is far away.

Newspaper ads

Despite the fact that newspaper ads are not read as often today as they were before the widespread use of the Internet, this method is still relevant. Especially in the regions - where buyers often turn to "From Hand to Hand" and similar publications in search of the right product.

Internet sales

Perhaps, almost the best way. The entire country will be able to see the ad, you won’t have to pay for its placement, and you will have to go somewhere to submit it. It remains only to sit and wait for calls. The most popular portals for this today are Avito, Avto and Drom. The latter is focused more on Japanese cars.

When placing several ads on different portals, it is better to work hard and publish different pictures. Some people may be attracted to one thing, others to another. Thus, you can increase the flow of potential buyers.

The art of writing an ad

A well-written advertisement for the sale will help sell the car quickly and profitably. It can also slow down the whole process by the same amount. Once you decide on which site you are going to place an ad for the sale, it's time to draw it up.

The first thing you should pay attention to when placing an ad is the photos of the car. That's what potential buyers will look at. If you do not place them at all, no one will notice the ad. If you place low-quality or frankly unsuccessful ones, instead of attracting, you can scare away buyers.

In addition, the ad must be filled with information. You should not sing in high style all the advantages of the car - instead, try to lay out all the information as clearly and accessible as possible. It should help you stand out from the crowd.

These two factors are fundamental, but there are enough nuances of how to sell a deregistered car.

Which photos to choose

There are two main points here. First, you should choose photos that correspond to the season of sale, so that it is clear that they are fresh, and not taken an unknown amount of time ago. You need to take pictures from all sides and be sure to take pictures during daylight hours. Experts recommend taking several dozen shots in bulk and then choosing the most beautiful ones.

Photos can also tell a lot about a car, and they should. If the car has external defects that will be quickly detected during a visual inspection, you should not try to hide them in the photo, deliberately ignoring them.

What to write

Equally important is a well-written text. First of all, it must include a complete description of the car. Do not get by with some general phrases, try to mention all the pluses. A person who looks at the ad must understand whether he needs such a transport or not. This will help ensure that only truly interested customers call you.

It is also important that the description is fully true. In no case should you mention that the car was not beaten and not repainted if this is not true. An experienced buyer will immediately figure out the truth, which will turn into a scandal. Mention that bargaining is possible, but it should be carried out only in person. Many experienced sellers know that even if the buyer completely triples everything, including the price, he will still bargain. That is why you should put a higher price in the ad - in practice, during the auction, it will be possible to painlessly reduce it to the initial one.

On the Internet, there is a buyer for everything, even the most rotten and beaten car. You should not just talk about its merits if it is barely on the move - it is better to immediately reveal all the cards and wait for your buyer.

7 steps to selling your car soon

1. Choose a sale period

The most important point is to choose in advance how quickly we need to implement the car. It depends on what actions should be taken in the future. It is worth remembering that urgency and high price are incompatible concepts. The more time you have, the wider the range of options. If funds are needed right now, you will have to place an ad with the most attractive price or immediately give the car to outbid.

2. Determine the desired price

Everything is more complicated here. It is advisable to immediately go through various publications and portals with thematic ads in order to evaluate a car by analogy with cars of the same year of manufacture, country of manufacture, etc.

3. Determine the desired method of sale

There are many options here, from an advertisement in the newspaper to a trade-in program that will help you change your old vehicle for a new one with a minimum surcharge. In the latter case, you should remember that your car will be valued much cheaper. About a third compared to the average price.

4. We make pre-sale preparation

Its importance has already been mentioned earlier. Remember that once again wiped glass and washed interior can bring more than one thousand rubles.

The ad should not write a highly artistic novel. Everything should be said clearly and to the point. It will be enough to carefully list all the characteristics, note the strengths and weaknesses, chips, additions and improvements. In addition, the ad should be updated periodically and supplemented with relevant photos.

6. Negotiation and bidding

After the ad is seen by potential buyers, some of them may ask for more information. At this stage, the more calls, the better. Experienced sellers recommend purchasing a separate SIM card, since it is not safe to show your real phone number today, and even after the sale is completed, you can simply postpone it, in which case you will not be bothered by calls.

A few words about negotiations. The golden rule here is: don't panic. People can be very different, but often the following categories will call you:

  • Dealers. You can distinguish them very simply: they will immediately offer their price, most often 20-30% lower than yours. At the same time, they are not at all interested in the state of the car. Contacting such people is recommended only as a last resort;
  • Irresponsible buyers who make appointments. But then they themselves do not come to them. To protect yourself from unnecessary useless running around, it would be better to make appointments as close to home as possible.

You should not let go of buyers who are going to "just go for the money." Ask them for a deposit. If the buyer does not agree, you should look for the next one. With potential buyers, you should not "mandalize", choose a tough line of behavior. In no case do not let them drive a car - often in this case, the sellers got nothing but trouble as a result.

7. Paperwork

Very often you can find an offer to sell a car by proxy. A separate paragraph of the material is devoted to this, but in short we can say this - this option will be inconvenient, both for the seller and for the buyer himself.

Selling a car without removing it from the register

Recent changes in legislation allow owners to sell cars even without having to deregister them. True, this is available only for participants in the transaction living in the same region. The step by step instructions are as follows:

  1. made in 3 copies. The first one remains with the seller, and the rest are transferred to the buyer, of the latter, one will be required for registration with the MREO. An important point: it is not at all necessary to seal the contract with a notary, it will be enough to write it by hand, filling in your passport data, as well as indicating information about the car. The date and two signatures must be on the paper: the seller and the buyer. No amendments to the contract are allowed;
  2. After receiving funds from the buyer, the new owner should be recorded in the passport of the technical device. Leave your own autograph in the signature box. It would not be superfluous to make a copy of the TCP for yourself, and the passport itself is given to the buyer;
  3. He should also give the technical inspection coupon, vehicle registration certificate and keys. The obligation to make an OSAGO policy lies with the buyer;
  4. In order to make life easier in case of problems, the seller and the buyer can exchange photocopies of passports.

Based on the results of all actions, the owner should have the following papers in his hands: a sales contract, money, a copy of the TCP and, optionally, a photocopy of the passport.

It should be noted right away: this method of how to sell a car without deregistration has a negative point. At present, even experts do not really know how motorists who have bought a car that has not been deregistered will defend their rights in court. Only time will be able to show whether the court will require the traffic police to register cars without fail.

Used car appraisal

One of the main problems that will certainly face those who are going to sell their car is the price. For how much can you sell your "iron horse" and at the same time not sell too cheap? How to determine the value of a used car? What stock to take on the auction and is it worth it at all? Tellingly, you can calculate the optimal price without any tricky formulas or long calculations.

Most often, the seller follows the following path: he opens ads in the newspaper or goes to thematic forums on the Internet and looks at how much similar cars sell for. This path is reasonable and correct, but only in part. Thanks to him, we will be able to find out only approximate prices, because there are simply no two similar cars and the circumstances of the sale. On the other hand, with the help of this approach, we will be able to find out at least an indicative price range.

There are three more effective ways to evaluate a car for sale:

  1. Contacting a bank or other financial institution. Just ask her to calculate the potential value of the car as a possible collateral for the loan. Moreover, in this case, it is not necessary to take a loan. The named amount can be quite calmly increased by 10-15%, and the car with the received price tag can be put up for sale;
  2. Contacting a car dealer. The option is almost identical, but here you should ask the approximate price for the program of exchanging a used car for a new one with payment. Here, a little more should be added to the amount - about 20%;
  3. The third option is insurance companies. You should be interested in the potential assessment of the cost of Casco. It should be noted right away - in this option, the price of the car will not be called to you, but the cost of the policy is quite. That's just it is calculated just based on the price of the car. To get it, just add 90% to the amount.

Attention: all of the above applies only to relatively young, not older than 10 years, cars. For machines with a longer service life, much more effort will be required. The main criterion here is mileage.

It is unlikely that it will be possible to determine the exact amount, but experts recommend proceeding as follows: first, we look through the ads and select the maximum price among analogues. If no one responded to the ad within a month, we reduce the requested amount by 5%. We continue the process until the desired result is achieved.

Sale by proxy

Among motorists, you can often hear the term "ownership by proxy." This method of sale has its pros and cons, which we will now discuss.

It’s worth starting with the fact that such a method itself means the transfer of ownership, disposal and use to a third party. As a result, the vehicle, as it were, falls out of the hands of the owner and goes into the possession of the attorney. However, all this is nothing more than temporary.

Both the buyer and the seller can face inconvenience with this method of ownership. Let's start with the first one:

  • The attorney is not the owner of the car, so the owner can unilaterally cancel the agreement;
  • If the owner is seized, the court may take the car from the attorney;
  • In the event of the death of the owner, the car may go to the heirs;
  • If the car is stolen, the attorney again loses it;
  • Selling a second time by proxy is not possible or requires notarization (depending on the contract drawn up);
  • The attorney cannot re-register the car;
  • In case of loss of the power of attorney, you will have to contact the owner;
  • It will be almost impossible to defend your interests in the event of a technical malfunction.

There are certain risks for the owner:

  • Taxes for the car will have to be paid to him;
  • If the car is used for criminal purposes, then all the troubles with the law will be the first to be felt by the owner.

Sale of broken cars

There are times when you need to sell a car after an accident. So, how to sell a broken car? In this case, the usual methods of selling rarely give the desired result. There are three main ways:

1. Purchase of broken cars

The method is both the most obvious and the least profitable. Most often, sellers fall for resellers who are trying to buy a car in order to sell it later at a higher price, so you should not expect a real price from them. In the end, if all the units except the body are in good condition, then it will be more profitable to sell the car for spare parts - the final profit will be much higher. Unfortunately, in this case, you will have to create and monitor a whole bunch of ads at once, which is unlikely to please anyone.

2. Selling a car without repair

One of the most controversial options. A rumpled and battered car is purely psychologically unlikely to please anyone. However, others will perceive this as a plus - all the shortcomings and vulnerabilities are immediately visible, which can turn out to be beneficial. Do not think that there is no buyer for such a car. That's just the price will be lower than the repair and sale of a repaired car. But more on that a little further.

3. Sale of a repaired car

This option is used by those who are going to hide the "pig in a poke" to some extent. It is worth remembering that serious damage can be masked, but as a result they will still come out. One of the main problems here is the fear of the buyer. When selling a repaired car, you will have to try and prove that the damage was minimal. Only in this case it will be possible to get a proper high price for the car.

Sale of a broken car for spare parts

A few words about how to sell a car for parts. Just dismantling the vehicle and selling it piece by piece will not work - first you need to obtain the consent of the tax, for which an appropriate examination is carried out.

At the next stage, you will need to take a picture of the car and post it on various sites (they have already been mentioned above). You should store a broken car in a garage or in a parking lot - otherwise, attackers will solve the problem of parsing and selling for you. As for the initial price, take the average for the market right away. If you cannot find similar offers, you can always consult with familiar experts.

Selling a car for parts is not easy. Alternatively, you can immediately contact the resellers. If you have acquaintances, it is worth talking with the craftsmen and agreeing on 60-70% of the price of each part sold. The revenue will be frankly low, but at least part of the funds will be recaptured.

Selling a car without documents

From time to time, advertisements for the sale of cars without documents appear on the Web. The reasons for their absence are called very different, but most often people immediately think about whether the car is listed as stolen. In fact, this is not always the case. As an alternative example, one can single out at least “left” customs clearance or a banal loss of documents. Most often, they prefer to buy such cars for spare parts - this is due to the fact that without documents it will not be possible to register a car.

How to sell a car without documents? It is worth saying right away that this is legally impossible. The contract of sale simply will not be carried out by the commission agent. Moreover, this is also true for those cases when the car is not stolen, and the documents were indeed simply lost for one reason or another. When buying such a car, you should be very careful - you should check in advance whether the car itself or any of its main units is stolen.

Loan car sale

Some people buy a car with a bank loan and end up in a situation where they simply cannot return it. As a result, they have a completely logical question: how to sell a credit car? The answer is simple: quite simple and there are several ways to do this at once. They will be discussed.

Implementation through a bank

Simply driving a car to the bank door is a useless option, no one will take it, but very often credit organizations have partners who are engaged in the sale of collateral. There are even special auctions where cars go by court order. They are one of the ways to sell a loan car. That's just getting the full price for the car in this case, of course, is unlikely to succeed.

In more detail, the algorithm can be explained as follows: the seller, together with the buyer, apply to a credit institution, where a contract of sale is concluded. In this case, the buyer must open a bank account, to which the balance of the loan debt is deposited, and the balance of the price is issued to the seller. As soon as the loan is repaid in this way, the bank must issue its opinion to both parties, which indicates the fulfillment of the obligation secured by the pledge.

An important point: when concluding the initial contract, the buyer can prescribe additional functions of the seller in it, for example, registration of the vehicle. In general, it is possible to sell a car to a bank, but not very profitable.

self sale

You can try to sell the car yourself, but you still have to resort to the services of a bank. It will be necessary to conclude a tripartite agreement, which states the following: the buyer transfers a certain amount to the seller, he gives back the car with documents, and spends the proceeds on repaying the loan. After completion of this procedure, the transport is removed from the register of collateral. Among the losses should be noted banking services and income tax.

It is also possible to reissue the loan to a new owner. With this approach, the car needs to be deregistered and re-registered for the buyer, this will require spending about $ 200.

Which way to choose? It is worth proceeding from priorities: if you need to quickly close the loan, it is better to entrust the sale to the bank, if you need to get a good amount, we do everything ourselves. The bank will be able to do everything on its own, but the price will eventually fall significantly, about 25%. But the method allows you to completely withdraw from the sale - a special broker will take care of everything.

Taxes on car sales

When selling a credit car in some cases, you will need to pay tax. It is paid if:

  • The price of the vehicle is above 250,000 rubles;
  • The selling price is higher than the purchase price;
  • The service life is less than 3 years.

The tax rate for individuals is 13%.

The nuances of taxation:

  • When selling, you will need to confirm the transaction amount and the initial price of the vehicle. The easiest way to calculate the tax is if the car costs 250 thousand, that is, more tax deduction. Only the amount exceeding it is subject to the law;
  • If the seller has owned the car for more than 3 years and all this time he had only one policyholder, then no tax is paid on the sale. The moment is very important - if the conditions of one insurant are not observed, you can get a significant fine;
  • If the amount received from the sale of the pledged vehicle is lower than the original price, then it is not paid;
  • Some sellers negotiate with buyers so that a reduced transaction amount is indicated in the contract, rather than the actual one. This is especially true when it comes to a vehicle that is less than 3 years old and sold at a price higher than what was indicated at the time of purchase. This practice requires almost complete trust between the parties;
  • After the sale of a vehicle with a service life of less than 3 years, after the sale, it will be necessary to report the fact of the transaction to the tax office. For this, it is filled in, to which documents confirming the sale are attached.

As you can see, the question “how to sell a car under a sales contract” is solved very simply.

Documentation of the sale of the car

Each transaction for the purchase and sale of a car must be properly executed. The main document is the contract, which is the legal main sale, which confirms the fact of ownership. It is filled in triplicate with a dark-colored pen. As soon as the contract is signed, the car becomes the property of the new owner.

Upon completion of this stage, you will need to register the vehicle with the traffic police. For this, the owner is given a period of 10 days, during which the car must be registered and its registration data changed accordingly. If the buyer does not have time, he will be fined. Moreover, after 10 days the seller can write an application himself and terminate his registration.

To set up and re-register the vehicle, the following papers will be required:

  • Passport of the owner and vehicle;
  • Application for registration;
  • Contract of sale;
  • Registration certificate;
  • OSAGO;
  • A document confirming the payment of the state duty for issuing a certificate of registration and for making changes to the TCP (350 + 500 rubles);
  • certificate of payment of state duty for registration plates in case of need to change the number (2000 rubles).

So, how to arrange the sale of a car. Starting from 2016, the execution of the transaction itself is carried out according to the new rules. You can make it even without removing the vehicle from the register, and temporary transit numbers are no longer issued. The deregistration of a car is carried out in one of two cases: when it is sent for scrap or abroad. Used cars are sold with their numbers.

The parties can execute the transaction without the involvement of a notary. In addition to a pre-prepared contract, each of the parties must have passports, and the seller must also have a vehicle passport. The latter will help the buyer to learn important nuances about the past of the vehicle. If the old one was lost, and you issue a new one with a mark, the buyer will immediately be alert. Such cases are always the first bell that the car is listed as stolen.

  • Sometimes, due to old age or due to corrosion, the body number is no longer readable. To avoid problems in the future, it is better to pass a forensic examination in advance. It’s just that it’s been done for a long time, so it’s better to postpone the sale of the car for several months;
  • Upon receipt, check the money for authenticity. This service is provided by all banks without exception, and its price is relatively low. Alternatively, arrange to deposit funds into your card account. You can withdraw cash at any time;
  • And again about the important thing: selling a car by proxy is one of the worst options among the possible ones. Claims, taxes, fines - all this will come to your name;
  • If the OSAGO policy is valid at the time of sale, you can contact the insurance institution with a claim for a refund.
