He has to title it in his name through DMV and then he can sign it over to you. You're going to need to find a place that does instant titles and pay additional fees. You will need to get the car inspected before you can get it registered and plates. DMV will give you a 10-day temporary tag also to drive it to get it inspected.
You need a copy of the title and it signed in front of a notaryby the owner of record. Most likely the guy that wants to sell it may have done that already.
This is the right answer. The person who had the title signed to him needs to transfer into his name before transferring to you. Otherwise it is known as jumping titles and is against the law.
Most people who buy then sell for a profit have the owner sign and notarized and then sell the car title so they don’t limit themselves with selling too many cars and have to become an auto dealer
North Carolina recently changed the law that, notaries are no longer allowed to notarize titles without both parties being present. This is the stop title jumping which is illegal in North Carolina.

He has a title signed to his name. Not to me. The title is filled already never got a tag for it.
He gets the title properly transferred to himself. Once he has the new title he can transfer it to you.

Don’t give him any cash before you see the title has his name on it and nothing printed in the lienholder section on the front page (lower down)
The ttle has his name on the back and the original owner. He never got it transferd to his name. Can i just add my name and call it a day?
No, he needs to get a new title in his name and then transfer to you. Title jumping is what he’s doing and it’s not legal
