A Michigan bill of sale allows for the ownership transfer of personal property, commonly a vehicle, from a seller to a buyer. Unless gifted, the exchange must be for cash or trade. The buyer and seller are required to sign the document after the transaction is complete.
The buyer must maintain a signed copy if they are to register the property post-sale (i.e. for vehicle transfers).
