Before you sign
- When is a bill of sale used?
- New Jersey’s reviewed section 12A:2-316 addresses exclusion or modification of warranties. This condition record preserves express promises and any non-waivable rights; it does not automatically disclaim every warranty. Source
- Notary and witnesses
- A signed sale record and a notarized certificate are different things. The reviewed commercial-law source does not establish a universal notary or witness requirement for every private goods sale. Source
