The Documentary Preparation Fee, also known as the “doc fee” or doc prep fee”, is permitted by Massachusetts law to be collected from vehicle purchasers by Massachusetts automobile dealers. The cost is charged to offset the costs incurred by the dealership in processing and retaining the paperwork associated with a sale or lease that is separate from those paid to acquire the vehicle. Prospect Auto Sales documentary fee is $695.00 and a $5.00 title fee will be added to all advertised prices of the advertised vehicles. Doc prep fee recognizes and reimburses costs related to a dealer’s compliance with federal and state laws and regulations that provide for safety, consumer protection, anti-theft measures, vehicle history checks, notifications, certifications, and official filings among others. Regulations & Responsibilities..Massachusetts Dealers Take Them Seriously Dealers must prepare and process the documents on each sale or lease transaction. Collection of the doc prep fee reimburses the costs incurred in doing the following: preparing a Purchase & Sale Agreement, appraisal documents, odometer statements, insurance verifications, etc., as well as storing and archiving documents and the personnel and technology costs associated with such tasks. Not all transactions involve the same services, but all transactions must meet many legal requirements as detailed in the documents provided to the purchaser. Actual expenses incurred and recovered through the documentary preparation fee, as well as the size of the fee, may vary by dealer, location, and transaction. At the time of this writing, most Massachusetts dealers of like size and volume to this dealer charge a documentation fee. Please understand that no portion of the dealer’s doc prep fee is required by or remitted to any state or federal agency. Further, the doc prep fee has nothing to do with the Title Preparation Fee, which is stated as a separate line item on the sales contract. (It is capped by law at $5). Dealer’s Responsibilities Include: Check vehicle safety, history, and titles Provide full condition information on the window label Discover and disclose accurate vehicle mileage Check for recalls on used vehicles where required Complete required forms and contracts that protect your interests Comply with consumer paperwork laws File and clear liens Keep your information private and secure Fulfill vehicle emissions laws Pass along manufacturer information, including warranty policies Distribute state Lemon Law notices Process rebates on your purchase Keep you informed of your rights and obligations Keep important records of your purchases Purchase required forms and supplies Maintain appropriate technology to process your paperwork faster Train staff to carry out laws that protect you Maintain professional and statutory licenses, and complete necessary education and training sessions, that ensure quality service Why So Many Forms? Vehicle transactions have become very complicated, demanding our unwavering attention to detail. Most forms are required to fulfill Massachusetts and federal laws. Others are often necessary for accounting, financing, or manufacturer rebate reimbursement or notification. Privacy Dealers must collect non-public, personal information that may be required as a result of processing the sale or lease. They must comply with federal and state laws designed to protect that information once it passes from you to the dealer’s hands. It’s the Massachusetts Way… Dealers abide by a strict code of ethics designed to reinforce their commitment to you, our valued customers. Dealers share an interest in creating consumer laws that keep customers’ satisfaction high and the industry healthy. For that reason, MSADA dealer member companies have joined the Legislature and state agencies in creating strict laws regarding vehicle sales.
