Legal Question in Consumer Law in Virginia

Private car sale

I am selling a car for $27,000 that I owe $15,000 on. The buyer wants the car now and will pay me $17,000 certified funds and the rest when I pay the note and sign the car title over to him which should take 8-10 days.

Does this sound like a bad decision?

Yes, it is a bad deal. Get all the money, give him the care, and then transfer title.

Agreed. By no means should you take any less than the full amount, and then transfer title.
