Selling a dead relative's possessions can often be steeped in legal and financial questions. Oftentimes, one of the hardest possessions to sell can be their vehicle. Some people who inherit a car will use it. Far more people won’t want it and seek to dispose of it as soon as possible. Luckily, this helpful article covers how to sell an inherited luxury vehicle. Once you read it, you’ll know how to navigate through this difficult process.

Consider the Details of the Will

Before you start selling the car, it’s essential to check the will carefully for any additional details about inheritance stipulations. The will should specify anyone who’ll receive the inheritance. If your name is listed, the executor of the state will assign the title of the car to the name of the beneficiary. If there’s no name specified anywhere, a probate court will settle the case.

Start Transfer of the Vehicle To Your Name

Now that you have all the information you need pertaining to the inheritance stipulations of the vehicle, submit all the requirements to start the transfer process. In most cases, the documents you’ll submit to the state include the following:

• Application for Certificate of Title
• Certified copy of Letters of Testamentary (or Letters of Administration)
• Affidavit of Heirship of Motor Vehicle
• Proof of your liability insurance
• Proof of vehicle inspection passing
• Valid driver's license for you and the executor
• Vehicle Registration Receipt

Start the Selling Process

After you submit the required paperwork, you completely own the car. Now, to sell the car after this, you follow a title transfer again. It’s often as easy as bringing the car in or posting it on various car-selling websites. Another option available is to sell it to a car buyer such as us at Nahas Motorcars where we’re dedicated to selling your Bentley or other luxury car.
