I found a buyer, college kid, for the talon. He needs wants the car and to make payments. How would I go about putting a lien on the title? I think I've found a legal contract on line I can slightly modify for him to sign and have notorized, but still want a lein, so if the payments stop I can go get the car with no legal issues.

Not a lawyer but, you would need to apply for a new title in his name with you as lienholder. Check out this form I found online:

 

Oklahoma Title Application

 

I would guess the title would be sent to you and until you released the lean as provided on the title itself you would be protected.

If he can't get a loan to pay you upfront, why would you want to accept payments? You don't have to answer that. But you are taking all the risk. What if he wrecks the car before he finishes paying it off? Is he going to carry full coverage insurance? With you as the lien holder?

He needs to go to the bank get a loan and pay you upfront for the car. If your going to the be the seller and finance center then I'd be charging him some serious interest, say 10-15%. Even if your setup as the lienholder and he defaults on the loan you'll still have to go through the courts to get the car back. In the meantime he's beat the crap out of the car making it pretty much worthless and since he's a college student he'll have next to nothing to sue for to recoup damages caused. I wouldn't except payment if it wasn't in a lump sum but if you don't want that you need to sit down and see how much repairs could be and the depreciated value of the car during the finance period; that amount is what you should charge in interest.

We're talking about a Talon here. Place a small mirror under the nostrils of the kid. Does it fog? If yes, get a good down payment and move that unit. :D

I just got a shiver down my back…

Theoretically…

Even if he had full coverage, his insurance co. would want you to cover the damages, being the lien holder.

Theoretically, speaking of course.......

What? No they wouldn't. They have zero interest in who holds the title.

 

As for how to go about taking payments...I say...Take the payments. When he's got it paid off, he gets the keys.

 

In other news, I may have a line on an '88 IROC roller.

Hmmm...are you a frequent co-signer? Lien holder? Do you have actual experience in these matters?

If the buyer has minimal or insufficient coverage, they are coming after you!

 

Wingnut, you have thrown the gauntlet, and I assure you I will research for the truth.

right or wrong the truth will out!

 

Being that it is the weekend, you will have my answer by midnight, Tuesday March 11th!

So your saying if I bought a vehicle from the dealership on payments, the bank that I had the loan through (lien holder) would require the dealership to cover any damages? That doesn't make any sense.

another thing to consider ... if he skips out on paying it .. and just wants the car to strip down for parts for him and his friends (DSM cars are still fairly popular among some kids)

 

depending on the laws where you live .. you may can get in more trouble trying to reposses the car ...

 

i would never consider taking payments on a car, direct the kid to a credit union or some other place like that to see about a loan ... or get em to ask his parents ...

No, when you buy the vehical...the dealership is out of the equation, You, and the bank would be responsible.

You need to restate your equation

The laws of private (between you and me), sellership seem to break down when there isn't anyone looking.

So right now, if I wrecked the TBSS, the insurance company would go after my bank since they are the lien holder? I don't think so. The insurance companies are responsible for the damages, as that's the point of having insurance to begin with.``

 

I've wrecked a few vehicles, and had a couple totaled. Both with liens on them. The insurance company never even talks to the bank. Matter of fact, they wrote the check to me. I could have cashed it and went to Vegas if I wanted. I'd have still been responsible for repayment of the loan to the lien holder (my bank) though.

 

The ONLY reason I've ever had an insurance company talk to my bank about ANYTHING, was when I buy a vehicle, my bank needs verification of insurance from my insurance company to make sure that THEIR investment is covered in case of my stupidity.

I might just chuck the thing on eBay with no reserve. I know I won't get 2500, but it'd be gone

      Can ask that about a lot of places.   Holiday sells 91 for $1 over 87 octane. BP 93 is 80 cents. Amoco 93 is 80 cents Kwik Trips is $1.20 for 92 or whatever they have and $1 for the 91.   I know that this is not exactly same as what you are saying with the premium to premium debate of those two stations but why is there such a difference. Top Tier this and that, it's all BS. All the fuel comes from the same damn refinery, so give me a break.

      Why does Mobil Premium cost 90 cents a gallon more than Shell Premium when their regular offerings are but pennies apart?

      Was all the way down to $3.69 a gallon but then jumped back to $3.99 just because for some reason.   Diesel floats between $4.80's to $5.10ish a gallon. I even saw Diesel #1 for $6.09 today but nobody in there right mind even buys that in the summer.

      Mine just keeps lagging or getting stuck on the reverse camera. When I turn off the truck, get out, and close the door it will still stay on. It’s very intermittent and I would not be able to duplicate the issue.

      I was checking out fuel prices at my farm fuel retailer at their pumps and yes the farm price is a bit lower than the non dyed fuel and was glad to see that the regular farm gas price has dropped a lot from what it had been but what blew me away was the price of diesel as the spread now compared to before the prices went up earlier in the year, diesel was actually slightly lower than gas which was a switch from the theme the last number of years. However that sure isn't the theme lately and definitely not right now. The prices I will post are not from that retailer but just looking at gasbuddy for the main city in this area and instead of posting the lowest price someone found I will list the higher price ( and that may not be the highest price, just whatever someone posted on gasbuddy ).   So regular gas and there are a lot of stations listing the same price for regular is 1.68 a liter, premium 2.00 a liter. Diesel 2.03 a liter for a top price I saw on diesel.   Figures out to 6.36 a us gallon Canadian funds for regular and 7.68 for diesel. With the US exchange rate it would be 4.58 us for regular and 5.53 for diesel.    Thought I would figure that out to get a picture of what it settles out like compared to various US prices and its about the same as the current price in Fairbanks AK as Anchorage tends to be lower. So yes, these would be the prices and higher along the way on the Alaska highway where they know they have a captured market !, for fuel prices for those beginning the long drive back to the lower 48   The problem is our Canadian dollar and going to the states that have the high prices, boy do we pay then !
