How do I protect myself when purchasing a compact - 10/20/22 05:39 PM
I am about ready to purchase a new John Deere compact tractor, loader, and snowblower from a machinery dealer about 50 miles from where I live. The tractor is a 2022 with only .5 hours. My concern is how do I protect myself that I am not buying something that has a lien on it and that I get ownership of it after I pay for it?
The person that has this tractor is a farmer and also has other equipment for sale. He also has a business name but he is not a franchised JD dealer. I have not asked him how it is that he has a new tractor from JD with only .5 hours.
I just don’t want to pay for this and a few weeks down the road have someone pull into my place and load it up because of a lien or some other problem.
