To give you a short answer, YES. The location of a secure asset has nothing to do with the obligation to repay the debt. There are some loans that are written with restrictions which would make the whole loan due (without default) if the car is removed from a certain locale (from some shady car dealers who self finance).
What else can I help you with?
Can a cosigner remove the primary borrower from a loan agreement?
No, a cosigner cannot remove the primary borrower from a loan agreement. The primary borrower is responsible for the loan, and the cosigner is only responsible if the primary borrower fails to pay.
Is it possible to buy a cosigner for a car?
No, it is not possible to buy a cosigner for a car. A cosigner is someone who agrees to be responsible for the loan if the primary borrower fails to make payments. They cannot be purchased or hired.
How bad does it affect the cosigner's credit if the borrower has the car voluntarily repossessed?
It has the same effect on the credit.
If a car was voluntary repossessed and the cosigner was not notified is the cosigner still responsible?
Yes. If you signed the loan, you are still legally responsible for it.
Is the cosigner of a vehicle liable if the it gets repossessed?
Yes, the cosigner is typically liable for the vehicle if the primary borrower defaults and the vehicle is repossessed. The cosigner is equally responsible for the loan and may be pursued for any outstanding debts, fees, or deficiencies resulting from the repossession. It's important for cosigners to understand their obligations before agreeing to cosign a loan.
Is there a way for the cosigner to be removed as cosigner if primary owner defaults?
No. The purpose of requiring a co-signer is that in the case of a default by the primary borrower, the cosigner has agreed to be fully responsible for the loan. Therefore, if the borrower defaults, that's what you're there for if you're the cosigner.
Can you explain how having a cosigner works?
Having a cosigner means that someone with a good credit history agrees to be responsible for a loan if the primary borrower cannot pay. This can help the borrower qualify for a loan or get better terms, but it also puts the cosigner at risk if the borrower defaults.
What is the difference between a cosigner and a cobuyer when applying for a loan?
A cosigner is someone who agrees to pay back the loan if the primary borrower cannot, while a cobuyer is someone who shares ownership of the purchased item and is equally responsible for the loan payments.
Is the cosigner the only one responsible on the loan?
The primary borrower is responsible for making the payments and adhering to the terms of the lending contract. The cosigner is legally obligated only if the primary borrower defaults on the lending agreement or files bankruptcy (chapter 7).
Can a cosigner be held legally responsible and sued for a car accident involving the primary borrower?
Yes, a cosigner can be held legally responsible and sued for a car accident involving the primary borrower, as they are equally liable for the loan and any related incidents.
What if the primary borrower files bankruptcy is the cosigner still responsible for making payments on the vehicle Can the co-signer take their name off the vehicle?
A Co-signer is always responsible for the item unless the primary borrower refinances and removes the co-signer. Unfortunately if the primary borrower filed bankrupcy it doesn't seem likely they will be able to refinance. Yes. Cosigner means that if for ANY reason the main borrower cannot pay, cosigner will be responsible to pay.
If a primary borrower defaults on a loan and the cosigner sues them will that prevent the lender from being able to take action against the cosigner?
No. The cosigner will still be equally responsible for the debt
