What is a Bill Of Sale Agreement?
A bill of sale agreement is a legal document that records the transfer of ownership of an asset to a second party in exchange for money. A bill of sale agreement can be used to record the sale of aircraft, automobiles, motorcycles, and watercraft. It also can be used to record the sale of personal property, such as equipment, musical instruments, or furniture.
Generally, a bill of sale agreement is drafted by the seller and includes the details of the transaction. It protects both the buyer and the seller, should disagreements arise in the future.
