Make sure the title is in your name and free of liens Obrigatório por lei

Sign the title over with the odometer reading Obrigatório por lei
Complete the seller's (assignment) section of the title with the buyer's name and address, the sale date, the price and the odometer reading, with every owner on the title signing. Some states, such as Pennsylvania and Kentucky, require the seller's signature to be notarized.

File the notice of sale or release of liability Obrigatório por lei

Texas DMV - Buying or selling a vehicle -

Fique seguro quando compradores entrarem em contato com você
- Washington DOL recommends meeting the buyer at a vehicle licensing office to collect payment and sign over the title.
- Never hand over a title with the buyer's name left blank: Nebraska calls it an 'open' title and Georgia makes giving or accepting one a misdemeanor.
- File your state's notice of sale right away; until it is on record you can be held responsible for the buyer's tickets, tolls and liability.
