Rebuilt Title: What It Is and What You Need To Know

What is a rebuilt title, and what should you know about it? A car with a rebuilt title is a car that was issued a salvage title first. When a car is damaged beyond repair, its clean title is taken away and it is given a salvage title. If the car is then repaired and able to be resold, it will receive a rebuilt title. Some things you should know before buying a car with a rebuilt title include how the car was damaged, how it was repaired, and who repaired it. A car with a rebuilt title has pros and cons. It might save you money if you are purchasing it, but if you are selling it, you will more than likely make a smaller profit.
