If there is a loan on your car, the lender holds a lien on the title, which means the title cannot transfer to a new owner until the loan is paid off. That single detail is what makes selling a financed car feel complicated.
The good news is simple: we do this every day at Sell To Cramer, and we handle the payoff and the title paperwork for you, from your first offer to the moment you are paid.
Five simple steps from your loan balance to cash in your hand, all handled by us.
It is called being upside down, or negative equity. It is more common than you think, and it is never a dead end. Here is exactly how we handle it.
If your car is worth more than you owe, we pay off the loan and hand you the difference the same day. That leftover is yours to keep.
If you owe more than the car is worth, the gap does not stop the sale. It just needs a simple plan, and we walk you through it.
We put the exact payoff, the offer, and any gap on paper before you decide, so there are never any surprises.
Pay the difference to close the loan, or in many cases roll the balance into the paperwork so you can move on cleanly.
Yes, you can sell a car that still has a loan on it. The lien just has to be paid off before the title transfers.

Cramer pays your lender directly and handles the lien-release paperwork for you.
Positive equity is paid to you the same day. Negative equity is shown in writing with clear options to close the gap.
