title transfer
Deed changes hands
Title transfer is the legal process of changing ownership records for property—typically vehicles, real estate, or other registered assets.
When you buy a car, the title transfer moves the seller's name off the official document and puts yours on: The DMV handled the title transfer within two weeks.
The term emphasizes the formal, documented nature of the transaction rather than the physical handover.
