Yes. LightSpeedBid verifies ownership before any sale is finalized. This protects customers from fraud, prevents unauthorized sales, and ensures the DMV will accept the transfer. Ownership verification is simple and happens automatically during the quoting and scheduling process.
When you enter your VIN, LightSpeedBid uses a secure database to confirm that the vehicle information matches the state title format. When you upload or show your ID at pickup, the buyer verifies that the name matches the name on the title. This step ensures you are the lawful owner or a legally authorized representative.
LightSpeedBid also checks for common issues such as mismatched signatures, incomplete transfers, open liens, or missing information. If something needs correction, the platform tells you exactly what to do. Ownership verification is not meant to complicate the process. It is meant to protect you from liability, scams, or DMV rejections.
Ownership verification ensures the sale is clean, legal, and fully protected once you hand over the vehicle.
