IF your name is on the TITLE as buyer or cobuyer, you have the right to POSSESSION. Do you know where the car is? Do you have a key?
Yes
Buy cobuyer I wonder if you mean cosigner on a loan. If this is the case then the answer is no. As a cosigner you are simply agreeing to pay the loan if the person who took it out does not. It is in his or her name and you are responsible for it if they do not pay it.
You will be responsible for the loan payments
Well, it depends how the title was written. if it says buyer "or" cobuyer you dont need the other persons signature for anything .... if its written with "and" between your two names, u will have to have both people present to complete any removals or transfers. That or you can have the cobuyer sell u the car. They will still need to be present though.
Make the idea known to the lender BEFORE you proceed. get it claer what is to happen.
Daughter and husband are getting divorce and she is the co-buyer can she take it out of state
If the buyer does not pay the loan, then the lender comes after the co-signer. Late payments affect both credit reports. Most recommendations are not to co-sign a loan.
There is a common misconception that cosigners are not responsible for payment. However, the purpose of a cosigner is to guarantee payment of the loan. The cosigner, comaker, cobuyer, coguarantor or a loan is equally responsible for payment of the debt. So, yes.
You can as long as the title says:(example) John Doe or Jane Doe, if it says John Doe and Jane Doe then the cobuyer has to be a part of the sale.
Cobuyer, cosigner, they are the same thing. Wherever you sign as co-signer you should be aware that if the primary borrower defaults on payments you will be held equally responsible for paying the loan.
You don't. If the cobuyer has possession of the vehicle and is no longer making payments, you as the buyer may take possession and either take up and make current the payments, or voluntarily surrender the vehicle. Failure to do so will result in repossession, and will adversely affect your credit.
