I live in New Jersey and am thinking about purchasing a used car from a
family friend. The sales tax that I may owe on this purchase will
strongly influence my decision to buy.
He is willing to sell the vehicle to me for the lowest price quoted on
KBB, about $30,000. What amount could I put down on the title to try
to decrease the amount of the sales tax that NJ charges? Is there any
way I could put the sale of the vehicle down as a "gift"?
Thank you in adavance for any advice you may have.
I'm researching the same thing you are. Let me know if you find
anything and I will do the same.
