Planning on buying a car from my mother-in-law's work. The company she works for leases vehicles for their sales reps. When they come off lease, the rep is allowed to buy it. Unfortunately, only the employee can buy it. One of her coworkers has been kind enough to help us out. We wrote him a check for the car, and he's going to cash the check and turn around and buy the car. He's then going to transfer the vehicle over to us. My question is how do I get out of paying sales tax twice? In Ohio, you can only gift a car to a relative, & I don't want to put her co worker in the position to lie about it. Any thoughts?
