do you NEED a notary when selling private party?

selling my 03 4runner and wanting if I HAVE to have a notary witness?

 

What state?

 

West Virginia

 

Looks like in WV it's similar to here in AZ, must be notarized.

 

Look on your state’s DMV website.

 

Just do it at your bank, they won't charge you if you deposit the funds there or any FedEx office will do it for like 10 bones

 

Grew up in wv and my dad never had anything notarized when he sold or bought vehicles. Maybe it’s changed since I’ve been gone for a few years

 

Of all the bs that cali does its shocking that 2 parties can sign on the back of a napkin and that's enough proof of a legal sale.

Might be an exaggeration but printing out a standard BOS is still not much work
