Question type: Car Selling & Trading In

Hello,

I was trying to understand from the Selling process, at what point would I
deliver the vehicle (or allow it to be picked up), and when do I sign-
over/hand-over the title?  

Are both done at the same time once the transaction has been completed
on the platform and the bill of sale is in hand?

thanks in advance,
Jay

I definitely agree. I'm trying to follow the help pages that I can find, which explain the process. https://cargurus.helpscoutdocs.com/article/232-secure-private-party-transactions https://cargurus.helpscoutdocs.com/article/243-how-do-i-start-a-secure-transaction- seller I guess what I'm trying to understand if from CarGuru's perspective if I use the platform to take payment from the buyer (verified funds, validated by CarGuru), and complete the online process. At this point, as the seller, I would have funds in my account and a signed bill of sale in-hand. And it is at this that point if I understood properly, the last step to - physically drop off the care, - take my plates - sign over the title Note, cars.com recommends this process (See last few paragraphs) https://www.cars.com/articles/first-time-buyers-how-to-sell-your-car-1420682715169/ Thanks!
