First, you will get calls, set appointments, re-arrange your schedule and in the end, the prospective buyer does not show up. To protect yourself, you should obtain a copy of their driver’s license and insurance before a test drive as insurance will not cover injury or collision if the license isn’t valid.  Finally, when you reach a deal, ask for a wire transfer.Cashier’s check are not always guaranteed—the buyer has the power to stop payment just like a normal check.
