    Default My Roomate Left His Car with Me

    How can transfer the ownership of a car that belonged to my roomate who left the country for good? Because i don't have the title i can't do anything beside sending him an affidavid saying he's abanding the car and only then i can transfer it into my name. The problem is i can't get hold of him nor i can't locate him. i only know he now lives in Morocco. The car is not worth a lot maybe a grant. The Seattle DMV ( Washington) told me also that i can call a towing company and buy it from them later at an auction. don't like the second option. Any ideas out there? thanks

    never believe wiki 100%, especially when there is one situation that somebody applied to all 50 states. Not accurate.

    I'll have to presume this involves Washington since you failed to post the pertinent state as requested when you initiate a new thread.

    I did not scour the statutes thoroughly but what I found seems to support what the DMV told you. You call the vehicle in to the police as an abandoned vehicle. They come and tow the vehicle and you get an opportunity to bid on it when the registered tow truck operator disposes of the vehicle.

    I found nothing to support legalguys information as being proper for Washington.
