Since it "doesn't need to be transferred" it's not a title in the sense of a title on a car or motorcycle from the State of Florida. If it is a LSV aka street legal it will have a State of FL official title & plates that does need to be transferred by FLDMV. Nothing is "required" to buy or sell a used golf cart or a used ironing board privately for that matter but a receipt is always good not that it will do anything for you since it's an as-is sale. Just make sure you have it checked out first.
