You can sell a vehicle that still has a loan. Our team works directly with your lender to obtain payoff figures, arrange the payoff as part of the transaction, and complete title transfer paperwork. If there’s a remaining amount after payoff we’ll settle that with you; if the sale covers the loan you receive the net proceeds. Tell us any loan details up front so we can streamline the process.
