The Seller hereby sells, transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer, and the Buyer hereby purchases and accepts from the Seller, the following described personal property (the "Property"): [item_description]. The Buyer acknowledges that the Buyer has had a full and adequate opportunity to inspect the Property prior to the execution of this Agreement and accepts the Property in its current condition as described herein.
The total purchase price for the Property is [sale_price] (the "Purchase Price"), payable in full by the Buyer to the Seller on or before the Sale Date. The Buyer and Seller acknowledge and agree that the Purchase Price represents the fair and agreed-upon value of the Property as negotiated between the Parties at arm's length. Upon receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller shall be deemed to have been fully compensated for the sale, transfer, and conveyance of the Property, and the Seller shall have no further right, title, or interest in or to the Property or the Purchase Price.
The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Buyer that: (a) the Seller is the sole and lawful owner of the Property and has full right, power, and authority to sell, transfer, and convey the Property to the Buyer; (b) the Property is free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, security interests, pledges, claims, charges, and restrictions of any kind whatsoever; (c) the Seller has not previously sold, transferred, assigned, pledged, or otherwise encumbered the Property or any interest therein to any other person or entity; and (d) the Seller will defend the Buyer's title to the Property against any and all claims and demands of any person or entity claiming an interest therein.
Upon execution of this Agreement and receipt of the Purchase Price in full, the Seller hereby irrevocably transfers, assigns, and conveys to the Buyer all of the Seller's right, title, and interest in and to the Property, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims of any kind. Title to and risk of loss of the Property shall pass from the Seller to the Buyer upon the execution of this Agreement and payment of the Purchase Price. From and after the transfer of title, the Buyer shall be solely responsible for the Property, including its care, maintenance, insurance, and all risks of loss, damage, theft, or destruction. The Seller agrees to execute and deliver to the Buyer any and all additional documents, instruments, or certificates as may be reasonably necessary or appropriate to evidence or effectuate the transfer of title to the Property.
5.1 Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed and enforced in accordance with, the laws of the state in which the transaction is consummated, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. 5.2 Entire Agreement. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement between the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersedes all prior and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, negotiations, and discussions, whether oral or written, between the Parties relating to the sale and purchase of the Property. 5.3 Severability. If any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision of this Agreement, and the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. 5.4 Amendment. This Agreement may not be amended, modified, or supplemented except by a written instrument signed by both Parties. 5.5 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original and all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 5.6 Binding Effect.

As a Texas auto repair shop owner, transferring ownership of a shop vehicle, specialized diagnostic equipment, or parts requires more than a handshake. To mitigate risks like faulty repair liability and the Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA), you need a Bill of Sale that integrates 'as-is' disclaimers and specific warranties. Whether you are disposing of assets or selling a customer’s abandoned vehicle under Texas lien laws, this document ensures compliance with the Texas Business and Commerce Code § 26.01 and protects your shop from future warranty disputes or service scope challenges.
Beyond the standard bill of sale sections, this template adds fields specific to Auto Repair Shop Owner:
A Bill of Sale serves the core legal purpose of providing proof of the transfer of ownership of an item from the seller to the buyer. It formalizes the transaction and fulfills the legal need for documentation of the sale, aiding in preventing disputes over ownership and clarifying the terms and conditions agreed upon by the parties involved.
Warranty Disputes
Clear terms of warranty services and exclusions expressly written into service agreements.
The Texas Deceptive Trade Practices Act (DTPA) allows consumers to sue for 'unconscionable actions.' To protect your shop, your Bill of Sale must include clear 'Warranties and Disclaimers'—specifically an 'As-Is' clause—to acknowledge that the buyer accepts the current condition of the diagnostic tools or machinery, preventing future claims of consumer fraud.
While the Bill of Sale focuses on the transfer of ownership, if you are selling a vehicle you previously repaired, it is a best practice to reference the final service scope and confirm that all OEM versus aftermarket parts choices were authorized. This prevents common industry pain points regarding payment disputes and unauthorized repair amounts.
Under Texas law, while a simple bill of sale may be enforceable with signatures, notarization or witness verification is highly recommended for high-value shop assets or when exercising a mechanic’s lien for a vehicle sale. This adds an essential layer of authenticity that helps meet the evidentiary standards of the Tex. Bus. & Com. Code.
The Bill of Sale confirms the transfer of Title, but it should be paired with your shop’s RCRA and Clean Air Act (CAA) compliance records. If selling equipment used for hazardous waste (like used oil containers), your seller’s representations should state the item's history to mitigate environmental compliance violation risks.
