I lost my title. Can I still sell my car today?

In most cases, yes. If you are the titled owner with a valid ID, call (954) 787-5717 and we can usually move forward the same day.

How long does a duplicate title take in Florida?

It varies, but expect weeks through the FLHSMV or county tax collector. If you need the car gone now, selling as-is is faster.

What if I find the title after selling?

Keep it or destroy it. Once the sale and transfer paperwork are complete, the old title is no longer valid for that car.

Do you need my registration too?

It helps, but it is not always required. Your ID and the VIN are the key pieces.

Is the offer lower without the title?

The offer is based on the car's value to us. A lost title alone does not automatically reduce it.

Keys Lost, Sale Found

Why Sell Your Keyless Car to Us?

Skip the $200 to $500 key replacement: Modern keys with chips and fobs cost a fortune to replace, and dealers charge the most. If the car is not worth that investment to you, sell it as-is and keep the key money in your pocket.
Ownership is proven with paperwork, not keys: What matters is that you own the car: title in your name and a photo ID. Keys are convenience items. We buy keyless cars every week.
Our trucks load cars without keys: Winches, dollies, and steering workarounds are standard equipment for our drivers. A car that cannot be driven onto the truck gets winched on. Routine for us.

The Duplicate Title Waiting Game

You lost the title. In Florida you can apply for a duplicate through the FLHSMV or your county tax collector's office, but it takes time to arrive, and time is exactly what you do not have when a dead car is sitting in your driveway or racking up HOA complaints.

We buy cars with lost titles. Instead of waiting weeks, call (954) 787-5717 today. If you are the titled owner and have your ID, we can usually move forward right away.

What Counts as Proof You Own It

A lost title is a paperwork problem, not an ownership problem. Here is what we look for.

Your photo ID

A valid driver's license or state ID in your name.

Old registration or insurance

Anything that ties you to the VIN helps.

The VIN itself

We can run with just the VIN plate in many cases.

When a Duplicate Title Makes Sense

If the car is valuable and you are not in a rush, applying for a duplicate title through the FLHSMV is a reasonable move. It gives you the most options as a seller. But do the math: if the car is worth a few hundred dollars and the process costs you weeks, selling as-is to us usually puts more money in your pocket faster.

How Fast This Goes

Call in the morning and the car can be gone the same day. Our average pickup time is about one hour across Broward, Miami-Dade and Palm Beach. We verify your ID, handle the bill of sale, tow free, and pay cash on the spot.
