So i found a buyer for my car off Kijiji, we agreed upon a price and everything so we're in the process of getting the paper work for the sale completed.
There is some complexity to the transaction as the buyer wants to ship the car to Vancouver as it's his second home. I met the buyer in person here in Calgary, everything seems to check out, no weird vibes etc.
Essentially what he wants to do is to lease the car through a BMW dealer from Vancouver as that is his preferred dealer, this will also help with tax write offs etc. What is supposed to happen is the BMW dealer will cut me a cheque for the car, which in turn they'll be "buying" the car back from me. No big issue on this, i just received the bill of sale (from New Car Dealers Association of BC) and everything seems to check out.
There is a minor mathematical error with the lien balance (a small $13 difference) but i'm anal with details so i've asked them to correct the details prior to signing.
The cheque from the dealer is being couriered as we speak, the buyer was confident that the cheque would be here today however it looks like it won't be here until Tues or Wed. The question is, should i sign anything prior to seeing this check or should i hold off? What are your guys thoughts? Am i missing anything? Maybe i'm just a little skeptical being this is a kijiji ad but i just wanted to make sure all my bases were covered. Thanks!
