Imperfect Title process is when a customer has possession of the title but their name is not on it.

3. Contact the listed owner and confirm they sold/transferred the vehicle. If no contact, send the Imperfect Title letter to the listed owner and wait 10 business days.

4. If no response from titled owner, ok to issue payment to the customer MINUS taxes and fees.
