If there is a lien it is normally listed on the Title.
A person can be the lien holder for anythimg
Look at the registration card. Just below the name of the title holder is "lienholder." If there is a name or company name there, then there is a lien on the car and the person will not have a pink slip. If the person has a pink slip, there is no lien on the car. There may be other reasons for a lien to be on a car, but the most common is that the car has been financed and the load has not yet been paid off.
no the lien has to be removed first then you can add another person to the title.sorry.
I think you may have meant "lien" instead of "lean". A lien is a monetary (money) debt placed against a possession by a creditor who has not been paid by other means. If an owner sells his cat on which a lien has previously been placed, the lien belongs to the person (i.e. the other person who owned the possession before); a lien does not "follow" the car or other possession, it follows the person who owes the debt. If a seller sold you a car with a lien against it, you need to contact an attorney to get the lien removed from your-now-owned car. You or your attorney needs to notify the creditor/lien holder that you bought the car without knowledge of the lien. The creditor would then need to identify a different possession owned by the other person in order to attach the lien to that possession, and not to your car.
The lien holder is the person or firm, you borrowed the money from to purchase the car.
Try to go to DMV find out who has lien on the car. Call the bank, they may negotiate
A lien on a car title most typically means that money is still owed on the car. When a person takes out a loan on a car a lien is put on the title until the full repayment of the loan.
Go to a lien search agency, they are everywhere.
A lien holder on a car title or car loan just means that person is the full owner of the car. If your car gets totalled or goes into default, the lien holder can retrieve the car from you because they have full ownership of the car. Lien Holders are used for lending purposes. This means the lien holder has no liability responsibility. The registered person on the car is required to have liability coverage on the car according to law and not hold the lien holder liability on the car if the car gets damaged or totaled. Lien Holder means they fully own the vehicle until the loan is paid off.
does my car have a lien?
Call your department of motor vehicles.
You will have to petition the court and demonstrate that you have an ownership interest in the car. They will determine if the lien can be granted.
