Q: I sold a used car in Michigan with an “AS IS” Bill of Sale. Can buyer force me to refund their money?
I told the buyer he couldn’t test drive the car because of no license or insurance. He said “OK” and bought the car. Sale price was under $500. I told the buyer that the car had not been driven or started for 6 months and the only thing I knew that was wrong was it needed a tuneup and that the AC didn’t work. The car is a 1992 Olds with 222,000 + miles on it. I typed out and both of us signed a Bill of Sale stating “AS IS” – no warranty expressed or implied. Buyer did not get the car home-transmission leaking through front seal. Now he wants his money back. Am I legally liable? Also, can you legally test drive a vehicle with no license or insurance in Michigan? Thanks!
A: I AM FROM MICHIGAN AND HAVE BOUGHT/SOLD MANY VEHICHLES, THIS BILL OF SALE IS BINDING ON YOUR PART. YOU WON’T HAVE ANY LEGAL PROBLEMS THOUGH HE MIGHT TAKE MATTERS IN HIS OWN HANDS.NEXT TIME RECORD THESE PROBLEMS ON THE BILL OF SALE FOR MORE EXACT UNDERSTANDING. AND NO ! YOU CANNOT LEGALLY TEST DRIVE A VEHICHLE WITHOUT PLATES/INSURANCE. ITS THE LAW!
Q: Michigan Private Used Auto Sale Laws?
Anyone know what the law would be for my situation. I’m in Michigan, and I purchased a 2002 Kia Spectra from a woman who told me everything on the vehicle was great except the transmission. So, I purchased it with the expectation that the transmission needed replacing, but everthing else was fine. I got 10 minutes from the woman’s house with the car, and it lost power, it overheated, and the radiator blew about 3 minutes after I got on the highway with it. I left it on the side of the road because it wouldn’t start back up. She tells me it isn’t her problem, it’s mine. Do I have any legal recourse against her? I drove the car just 10 minutes!
A: Yes, but since it sounds like she is not cooperating I would recommend that you speak with a lawyer – at the least you should look into filing a cause of action – which you can do on your own, but it would be easier to have a lawyers help.
She made a promise to you when she sold you the car – and clearly she was not being truthful – this is fraud and breach of contract – it is horrible that she won’t cooperate, sorry to hear about your situation.
Q: Escrow service for private party out of state used car sale?
I’m in California selling a Mustang Cobra, The buyer is in Michigan.
I have heard of escrow services that act as a neutral 3rd party, holding the title and payment until the sale is completed.
Can someone explain this process and maybe recommend an escrow service ?
Dude, I’ll be arranging it. It’s done with ebay sales on a regular basis to avoid scams.
I didn’t say it was an ebay service, I said it’s done with ebay sales, those who buy and sell on ebay commonly use a 3rd party escrow service.
A: Dude, I’ll be arranging it. It’s done with ebay sales on a regular basis to avoid scams.
———–
This is news to Ebay. They don’t have their own escrow service.
Coincidentally, people get scammed on a regular basis. Hmmm.
Q: Buying a used car out of state?
I live in Michigan and am considering buying a used car for sale in Ohio. Anyone know how much of a pain it is to do this (if it is a pain)? Does the sales tax get taken care of in Ohio or will I pay again when I register it in Michigan?
Thanks
A: It’s not a pain at all.
You’ll buy the car in Ohio (with no taxes added) and buy a temporary license plate. When you return to Michigan you will go to the DMV and get your real, permanent license plates. This is where you will bring your bill of sale and pay for the plates and (Michigan) taxes.
Q: Why are used lexus is300 or lexus is250 hard to find in michigan?
I am looking to buy a car and am considering purchasing a used 2003 and up is300 or a 2006 is250….but for some reason I can’t find any within 75 miles of ann arbor, michigan. Why is it that there are so few, if not any used ones for sale? I haven’t seen many on the roads, so where are they all?
A: Hey I know what you mean! I also live in Mi. A couple months ago I was looking for a newer used car, and I love the is300. 2JZ RWD what else could you want. couldn’t find one anywhere! At All! WTF!! The only thing I could think of was RWD and snow scare most people. especially if your not into fast cars. I ended up buying a ba8 prelude with a H22a swap. I really wanted a IS300 or a MKIII Supra. Dammit! Good Luck in your search.
Q: What are the consumer protection rules RE: private sales in Michigan?
Was wondering if anyone has purchased a used car from a private owner in Michigan and was able to get any form of their money back? My check engine light was on from the drive home, and engine blew a month later. He said he did an oil change, but light suggested otherwise. Kept putting oil in and it was not leaking out so… Anyway, $2,080 later my car is running, lost out on my college class and book money, had no transportation for a month? Also, paid $2,250 for the car to begin with… anyone have any suggestions or been through this type thing? Michigan law…
A: I sell used vehicles for a dealer in Michigan, and from that standpoint, unless it is “in writing” you have no recourse.
HOWEVER, if dealers are not offering any kind of warranty, they are required to have the customer sign a “Warranty Disclaimer” that basically says that you were offered an Extended Service Plan, and refused it. Thus the vehicle is without a warranty…or any kind of promise that it will last any longer than after you sign the papers. That way, if the car blows an engine on your way home, the dealer can cover his a– and show the judge the paper saying that YOU (the consumer) refused the warranty that was offered, and that you knew perfectly well that the car was AS-IS.
Now, the reason dealers have to do all this (and more) is because we are licensed dealers …. Individuals can sell personal property any time they want to, without any license.
Therefore, you might have more of a legal “leg to stand on” because NEITHER of you has paperwork indicating one way or the other that the vehicle may or may not be fit for use. You can argue that he assured you it was fully functional and useable. He can argue that he never said such a thing.
Its now your word against HIS. So, its up to the judge.
Q: Help with deciding if its worth it to be a real estate agent in michigan.?
I have always wanted to be a real estate agent but the economy scared me for a bit. i am really good at sales i have sold electronics and i have sold used cars but its not what i want to sell. but i want to know if its worth it. So if there is anyone out there who can point me in the right direction as far as how much i am realistically going to make and how to become one in michigan i would appreciate it.
A: A good background in sales would be helpful in being a successful real estate agent.
Earning money in the real estate career field is different for each individual. You determine this by your dedication to your potential clients, if you have a good marketing plan or sitting around the office listening to real estate war stories about what once was and the good ole times, and I remember when.
Sitting in the office listening to the other agents tell you what will not work is not the key to being a successful real estate agent.
The key to having a successful career in the real estate field are simply and easy to follow.
#1 Get the necessary education to get your state license.
A. An internet class would do just fine you are only trying to get your license.
B. If you like to sit through a class then find a real estate school in your local area.
C. Some real estate offices offer career real estate license school in their office
#2 Obtain the necessary continuing education to maintain and keep your license to sell real estate up to date.
#3 Formalize the best marketing plan you can think of to maintain a high degree of referrals and a good customer base.
You may listen to others that are successful and those that are unsuccessful tell you about what they do that work and what they do that don’t work for them.
You are not them so, what might work or not work for them might be the reverse for you. So take what they tell you and put them into something that work for you.
Starting part time might work for some and not for others. It simply depends on how many hours a day you are willing to put into your new career and how bad you want to leave your old career behind. Sometime your present career can be a crutch.
The main thing you want to remember about making real estate your career is that you are working for yourself, so you are the one that have to motivate yourself each and every day.
You want to become an expert in real estate not just a person that sell and list houses. There is a big difference.
There are several marketing techniques that are in use today.
#1 There is telemarketing, but then there is the “Do not call list” So you have to be careful there and not make a mistake or you will be sued. Cost is $11,000 per call for you as well as your employer.
#3 Advertise in the local newspaper that you are now in the business of doing real estate.
#4 You can direct mail to people in your city telling them you are in the real estate business.
I suggest you market yourself by leaving the office and spending time in a area that you want to work and get to know the people that could be your future clients.
Find an area in your city that you want to work approximately 5,000-10,000 houses. Make you enough fliers to cover your area. If you have children this will be a good weekend activity for them as well as yourself. While walking the area passing out your fliers, if you see someone out doing the lawn or just out introduce yourself, give them one of your cards. See if they are willing to give you their name and email address so you can email them, on a monthly basis, things about the real estate industry as well as your monthly newsletter. Place any information you collect in a data base that you should start.
Your flier should tell them a little about you, the high school and college you attended, a little about your family # of children, husbands first name if you have a family yet, a few of the real estate programs that you will be offering and introducing. This is an introductory flier that you can make on your computer. You can get them ran off at Staples or Office Depot.
You should pass these type fliers out at least 3 months in a row. This will let them know that you are sincere and look as if you will be there for them.
You should also visit the local commercial places in the same area. Find out if they will allow you to place a flier holder in their business, give them one of your business cards, find out their
name, write it down you never want to forget it because they will become one of your partners. buy something even if you are gonna give it away and don’t need it. Do this to as many commercial businesses in the area as will allow you to place a flier holder in their place of business. You will find the flier holders at Staples or Office Depot.
Call the post office and inquire about their bulk mailing stamp. Get one and learn the system of bulk mailing.
Also call your title company and get them to provide you with the names of the people in your area that you have been passing out your flier.
Remember your data base you were starting and now should have over a thousand names that you alone should have been able to get if you have been walking the area.
Once you have passed out the fliers for at least 3-4 months start you a newsletter covering topics on the real estate business. Get articles from your loca
Q: Need a car?
Does anyone have a used car for sale cheap in or close to Jackson, Michigan? I’ve been looking and looking but having only $500 makes it hard to find anything reliable
A: check out www.craigslist.com. People have everything in there. Just look up your area.
Q: Is there a website to see where all or many US Chrysler dealerships are having a sale?
I just read in the Wall Street Journal that Chrysler is going to start charging their dealership fees for unsold new and used cars. Many dealerships say that they will have to start selling cars at a loss in order to stay in business. I’m not in the market for a new car, but if the deal is right I might buy. However, it would be nice to have one central location that lists dealerships that are having sales or individual car listings. A national site would be great, because I don’t mind going out of state if the deal is right. I’m not too far away from Michigan, where I bet, there will be the most amount of cars being sold at rock bottom prices.
A: There’s a dealer in Holton Ks going out of business. Just announced last week. Liquidating stock now ,for the next 30 / 45 days,
Called Gary Hardy Chrysler /Jeep……….md

A: looks like a mess….what r u asking…1000 or so??
Q: What documents needed for Auto registration and Lic Plates?
I brought a used car from out of state dealer – i.e. from California and I live in Michigan. What papers I need to get from the dealer to register papers in Michigan? The deaer told me that it takes two to three weeks to get the title and it comes directly to my home address. Is it right? Can I register and get lic plates without waiting for title paper – if I have bill of sale?
A: I assume the dealer sent your title paper work to the Michigan Secretary of State? If so you will need to wait for the title to come back from them, and the vehicle will be in your name. If he sent it to California then you will have to wait for the title to come from California and then take that document to the Michigan SOS.
You should call the Michigan SOS and see if they have any sort of temporary permit (paper plate) you can use until your documents arrive. A lot of states have those. You can call them at (888) 767-6424 , or you can e-mail your question to them at http://www.michigan.gov/sos/0,1607,7-127-13162-173147–,00.html
Good Luck!

1989 PONTIAC GRAND AM 5 SPEED 2.3 4 CYL 130K MI 2 DOOR POWER WINDOWS SUN ROOF ALLOY WHEELS CALL 260 701 3106 BEFORE 9 PM HAPPY NEW YEAR
A: I’d stay away from the Pontiacs. It is a weaker brand and is being phased out. GM said that for now they will be servicing the brand, but this period of backing the brand is indefinite. Meaning at some point in the future, GM will not be backing the brand or ordering parts to be made for the car. Then your car will be worth practically nothing.
If you decide to get the pontiac, please find a good mechanic that knows how to fix and tune the car, and know what parts it needs
