Out of State Purchase
Anyone ever use an escrow to secure a vehicle? Trying to buy a car out of state and have it shipped. I got a loan to buy the car. The bank went and verified the vin number. Still nervous to send the bank check and my down payment directly. Curious about using escrow until the car gets here. Any advise?

escrow.com do a lot of research on any company you use. Also your bank should be able to set an escrow account up. Becareful there are a lot of scammers who want you to use their escrow company which can be a front for stealing money.

Fly in and look at the car in person first. It would be worth the extra $120-$300 in ticket costs.

Have a local pelican do a drive by inspection.
