If you and your co-signer are on the title do both people have to sign over when selling that car?

In most cases, yes. If both you and your co-signer are on the title of the car, then both of you will need to sign the title over when you sell the car. This is because both of you are legally considered to be the owners of the car, and so both of you need to agree to sell it.

However, there are some exceptions to this rule. For example, if you live in a community property state, then your spouse may be able to sign over the title on your behalf if they are also on the title. Additionally, if your co-signer has given you a power of attorney, then you may be able to sign over the title on their behalf.

If you are not sure whether or not both you and your co-signer need to sign over the title when you sell your car, it is always best to consult with a lawyer to be sure.
