It depends on a few different things like the location, age of your vehicle, and what other documentation you may have available. We can buy some cars without titles in some states, but you will usually need a photo ID that matches a valid registration and/or insurance card to prove ownership. Sometimes additional documents will need to be signed and notarized. We cannot purchase abandoned vehicles or vehicles that have active liens under any circumstances. We will also not pay for impound fees if they are required to release a vehicle.

Yes, to legally sell your vehicle you must be the legal owner. That means a title or registration in your name. Any titles that are “signed over” to you cannot be used until ownership is fully transferred into your name. This is a state law in all 50 states, and “title jumping” (selling a car without transferring ownership first), is technically a felony.

Once we collect all the required information (and photos in some cases), we’ll forward it to our carrier or buyer immediately and they will reach out to you to schedule an exact day and time for pickup. Our carriers usually respond within a few business hours but can sometimes take longer. Because Los Angeles Car Buyers does not directly handle scheduling, we cannot fully guarantee any specific time or date. With that said, however, most of our pickups happen within two business days and many even happen on the same day as submission.
