Question type: Car Selling & Trading In

Hi there,
I have a quick question. I have a friend who purchased a vehicle through a
dealership that was financed by a bank loan. She would like to sell the car
after having the vehicle for a year, but has a 19 000$ lien on it with the bank.
How would she go about going through the proper steps and channels in
order to facilitate the sale of the vehicle without paying the loan amount
upfront herself?

1 Answer

If she owes more than the car is worth there is a problem. I would do the transaction at the lenders office if possible. She should contact them and ask.
