While not legally mandatory for the Arizona MVD to process a title transfer, a Bill of Sale is highly recommended. It serves as your official receipt and protects both you and the seller from future disputes about the sale price, date, or vehicle condition. It should include the VIN, vehicle details, sale price, date, and signatures of both parties.
To legally transfer ownership, the seller must sign the back of the title. In Arizona, the seller's signature must be notarized to be valid. You can find notary services at local businesses in Star Valley or at banks in neighboring Payson. Once you have the signed and notarized title, take it to the MVD office in Payson or an authorized third-party provider to complete the transfer and register the vehicle in your name.
To drive your newly purchased car home or to the MVD office in Payson, you must get a "Restricted Use 3-Day Permit." This temporary permit can be easily purchased and printed online through the AZ MVD Now website. This is the most convenient option, as driving without a plate or permit on Highway 260 can lead to a traffic stop.
Always prioritize safety by meeting in a public, well-lit area during the day. Good options in the Star Valley area include:
1. The parking lot of the Star Valley Town Hall on Highway 260.
2. Busy public areas like the parking lots of major hardware stores or gas stations along the main highway corridor.
Before paying, carefully inspect the title document. Ensure the seller’s name on the title matches their government-issued ID. Critically, verify that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) on the title perfectly matches the VIN on the car’s dashboard and driver-side door jamb.
A lien means a lender still has a financial claim on the vehicle. You can check for liens for free on the AZ MVD Now website using the car's VIN. If a lien exists, the seller must provide you with a lien release document from the lender before you can get a clear title.
