This is probably going to cause some trouble. Sales tax is due each time you buy from a private owner. This guy you bought from probably didn't want to pay the sales tax and did not register it in his name. If he does register it in his name, he will have to pay sales tax, and wait for the title to be returned before he can sign it over to your daughter. Then she will have to pay sales tax again. If there is a way to get out to the deal, that is what I would ask for. If you go back to the original owner, he would have to lie and say he sold it direct to you .... not sure you would want to get involved in that. |
