Have you tried CarMax. I sold a car there this year. It was the best offer I could find. I have sold cars myself a few times but not with loans. You might need to pay off the loan before you can sell it yourself. I usually use autotrader or cars.com. Unless the car is under $10k it’s hard because people can’t afford that without a loan and you don’t know if that loan check is fraudulent or not. I only sell for cash although it seems like Zelle might be safe too. Don’t take a cashiers check. They get faked. If the buyer says they don’t have the cash on them, offer to go to their bank. Have them withdraw, and hand you cash.
I sold 2 cars on but both were loan paid off. I would meet the prospects in a busy parking lot and take a picture of their license. And then meet at a bank branch where they can give me cash and I would deposit that into my account right away. Paper work is easy. But if it's financed , the lender will have the title, and you can not transfer ownership. If there is way, I wouldn't know
Also recommend FB Marketplace.
For the loan issue, can you qualify for a personal loan. Then you could payoff the car loan and have title in hand. Once sold, payoff the personal loan.
Better to eat the low price than being scammed and lose everything on Craigslist.
Try FB Marketplace
I sold 2 cars on Craigslist, worked fine for me. Cars.com and cargurus are other options to consider.
