my seller was a bit of a wild card. we did do the transaction at the bank. but banks dont carry the title. i then had to wade thru the wonderful world of the DMV to get it all done. there is way too much downtime for me to think about what can go wrong. it literally rides on the seller doing the right thing.
a good seller would nut up and pay it off first, get the title and then sell it.

One of our new local PCA members just moved to OKC from California. He has a neat 911, and two daily driver vehicles. He said one weekend he psyched himself up all weekend to go get a tag for one of the cars. He said he looked on line for where the DMV and car registration was and was puzzled when he could not find it. He asked a neighbor and they directed him to the nearby Tag Agent. He walked in an it was a nice looking place with two pretty women that were super friendly and he had a tag in hand in a few minutes, and was standing there almost stunned when one of them asked if he had other cars. He said he did, but he had not brought the documents for them. They said no problem, we will hold the next two tags for you so your tags will have consecutive numbers. He drove home, got the titles and insurance for them, and had two more tags all in less than 45 minutes. He said if he had not had to drive home it would be a 10 minute visit. He said he was almost excited to go back next year and pay just 21 bucks for his 912's tag.
