Personal Property Bill of Sale
A bill of sale is a document that records the transfer of ownership of a specific item of personal property from a seller to a buyer in exchange for payment. Use this when you're selling or buying a used item directly with another person, such as a car, appliance, or piece of furniture, and want a signed record of the price, condition, and terms of the sale.
