No title? No problem in most cases. Free towing, cash on the spot.
Keys Lost, Sale Found
Here is what happens to a lot of people. They lose the only key to an older car. The dealer quotes $300 or more for a replacement with programming. A locksmith might do it cheaper, but it is still real money. Meanwhile the car sits, the registration lapses, and the car's value keeps dropping. If the car is only worth a few hundred dollars running, spending hundreds on a key makes no sense. That is exactly when selling as-is wins. We buy the car without keys, tow it free, and pay you cash. The key problem becomes our problem, not yours.
Selling without keys adds one wrinkle and removes zero value from the process.
Call (954) 787-5717 or fill out the form. Mention that you have no keys. It does not change whether we buy it, it just tells our driver what equipment to bring.
Have the title in your name and a valid photo ID ready. This is the part that actually matters. We buy cars without titles in most cases too, so tell us your exact situation.
Our driver winches the car onto the truck. Locked steering and dead batteries are non-issues with the right equipment. Average pickup time is about one hour.
Sign the title paperwork, hand over what you have, and take your cash.
Locked with no keys is fine. Our drivers load locked vehicles regularly. The one thing we cannot do is start the car, so if it is a running car, the offer reflects that we are buying it as a non-runner for our purposes. Be upfront about it and the offer will be accurate. What we do need is clear access to the vehicle: a driveway, a lot, or a street spot our truck can reach.
People mix these up. Keys prove convenience. The title proves ownership. Florida law cares about the title, not the keys. That is why a lost key is a minor logistics detail while a missing title needs a conversation. If you have the title and ID, the sale is straightforward. If the title is also missing, read our guide on selling without a title or just call us and explain. We will give you a straight answer.
