Dual Ownership – Plural Ownership – What does it mean?

Dual ownership, A.K.A. plural ownership, is when a vehicle title lists more than one person as joint legal owners. Though there are many reasons this could happen; a husband and wife or parent and 16-year old child, or many reasons.

There are many reasons this could occur, but regardless, to transfer the title of ownership to another person all-current registered owners must sign the title to sell your car, quick or otherwise, online, to a dealership, or a private buyer. If the legally registered owner on the vehicle’s title is unable to sign over the vehicle to a new owner, then the new owner – regardless of how ownership was obtained, possibly from a deceased relative for instance – will be required to present rightful ownership documentation to their local DMV office.

How can I sell my car online if the owner listed is deceased?

When this occurs, you can only transfer the title with a copy of the death certificate and legal documents showing proof of Surviving Spouse, Estate Executor, Administrator, or Next-of-Kin. Contact your local DMV for requirements, but be patient, their operations may be different than normal due to the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic.
