I have title to my car but owe money on it through a lender. Since I have title can I just up and sell the car
The person I bought my car from paid her lender off when I gave her the check from my lender. After that, the old lender sent her the title which she gave to me. Can I now sell the car and just continue to pay my car note as if I still own it?
If you want to take a chance on being prosecuted for fraud or theft. When you received that title you were required by law to turn it in to your lender. But, whether you have the title or not there is a lien against that vehicle and "by Law" it is not yours to sell. If you do, you will have committed fraud. The only legal way you can sell it is to inform your lender and arrange to pay off the note when you sell the car.
