Can I sell a car on behalf of a family member or friend?

Yes, you can. However, if you are selling a car on behalf of a relative or friend, we require that you also obtain a letter of authorization (i.e. Power of Attorney) from the registered owner of the vehicle. Payment and transaction details must match the owner’s name on the vehicle's title.

We also require you to bring two forms of ID from the registered owner (one original photo ID and one proof of their address that is dated within the last three months) and two forms of ID from the person selling the vehicle on their behalf (one original photo ID and one proof of their address that is dated within the last three months) along with all other required vehicle documentation (e.g. registration card and title/current payoff letter, etc).

* Valuations are provided as an estimate for informational purposes only and do not constitute an offer from webuyanycar.com®, except where you are expressly made a conditional 7 Day Offer. Valuations are based on the limited information we collect from you online and market information about your vehicle (which, for some makes, models and years, can be limited). Therefore the valuation may be adjusted at our discretion at any time, including prior to or during our in-branch vehicle inspection. Additional fees (e.g. titling) may also apply. By selecting to receive a valuation or conditional 7 Day Offer, you agree to our Terms of Use.
