Thanks for responses so far. I sent her the link to the state of Indiana webpage that details what to do if you don't get the title. She got a bill of sale - I loaned the money to her to buy the trailer from D & J Trailers in Indiana, hence my interest. She went to the dealership with a certified check from me the next day and came with the the aforementioned BoS stamped paid - no title. I was surprised, I had thought we were good to go from the way he talked on the first night. They delivered the trailer, etc. But despite numerous calls we keep getting the run around. This was part of an estate and i worry that something is snarled up with that. But it would seem to me that it would be unethical or illegal to sell something you don't have clear title to. Anyway thanks for ideas. Against my judgement, she wants to give them 1 more week before dropping the hammer.
