Tennessee · Individual
Got a vehicle that’s older or not worth very much, but the title’s not in your name?
A Certificate of Ownership gets you a legal title without a surety bond, and without the extra cost that comes with one. This might be the easiest fix you’ll find today.
This RoadMap Is For You If
- You’re a Tennessee resident who got the vehicle from an individual, not a dealer
- You can’t get a normal title transfer for it
- It’s either worth $3,000 or less today, or it was made thirty years ago or earlier
This RoadMap Is Not For You If
- A dealer sold you the vehicle. Look at our RoadMap to a Dealer Title instead.
- It’s newer and currently worth more than $3,000. Look at our RoadMap to a Bonded Title instead.
What You Get
Our RoadMap to a Certificate of Ownership walks you through every step: confirming you’re on the right route, notifying anyone with a legal interest in the vehicle, verifying your VIN if it’s needed, documenting your ownership and value, and completing and filing your application at the county clerk. Plus, our Member Area gives you video walkthroughs, checklists, and templates for every stage.
Clear. Complete. Confident.
We’re not the state or a law firm, and every county clerk’s office works a little differently. But you won’t be guessing at any step. You’re not doing this by yourself anymore.
