Since it is a US Federal Government, you treat like as if it is a military base. The repo guy can not be on the property. It is considered as trespassing. They can not sneak inside there and they can not try to gain access to the property. They repo guy have to get permission to be on government property. * True, the repossession agent needs permission to enter a military base. That, however, is very easy to come by through the AG office. Repossession agents are well aware of what is necessary and will show up with the required documents to recover the vehicle. The only government land that a repossession agent can not gain access to without a court order and permission from the Tribal Council would be a Native American Reservation. * And adding - really just a call or two to the base office is all that is needed to not only get permission, but frequently their help in assuring recovery. And that anyone on the base has gotten that involved in something, if not nefarious at least problematic/attention getting, making them suseptible to blackmail, can mean the problems won't end at losing the vehicle!

How do i get a repossession license in Indiana?
When you finance or lease a vehicle, your creditor holds important rights on the vehicle until you've made the last loan payment or fully paid off your lease obligation. These rights are established by the signed contract and by state law. If your payments are late or you default on your contract in any way, your creditor may have the right to repossess your car. Talking with Your Creditor It is easier to try to prevent a vehicle repossession from taking place than to dispute it afterward. Contact your creditor when you realize you'll be late with a payment. Many creditors will work with you if they believe you'll be able to pay soon, even if slightly late. Sometimes you may be able to negotiate a delay in your payment or a revised schedule of payments. If you reach an agreement to modify your original contract, get it in writing to avoid questions later. Still, your creditor may refuse to accept late payments or make other changes in your contract and may demand that you return the car. By voluntarily agreeing to a repossession, you may reduce your creditor's expenses, which you would be responsible for paying. Remember that even if you return the car voluntarily, you're responsible for paying any deficiency on your credit or lease contract, and your creditor still may report the late payments and/or repossession on your credit report. Seizing the Car In many states, your creditor has legal authority to seize your vehicle as soon as you default on your loan or lease. Because state laws differ, read your contract to find out what constitutes a "default." In most states, failing to make a payment on time or to meet your other contractual responsibilities are considered defaults. In some states, creditors are allowed on your property to seize your car without letting you know in advance. But creditors aren't usually allowed to "breach the peace" in connection with repossession. In some states, removing your car from a closed garage without your permission may constitute a breach of the peace. Creditors who breach the peace in seizing your car may have to pay you if they harm you or your property. A creditor usually can't keep or sell any personal property found inside. State laws also may require your creditor to use reasonable care to prevent others from removing your property from the repossessed car. If you find that your creditor can't account for articles left in your car, talk to an attorney about whether your state offers a right to compensation. Selling the Car Once your creditor has repossessed your car, they may decide to sell it in either a public or private sale. In some states, your creditor must let you know what will happen to the car. For example, if a creditor chooses to sell the car at public auction, state law may require that the creditor tells you the date of the sale so that you can attend and participate in the bidding. If the vehicle is to be sold privately, you may have a right to know the date it will be sold. In either of these circumstances, you may be entitled to buy back the vehicle by paying the full amount you owe, plus any expenses connected with its repossession (such as storage and preparation for sale). In some states, the law allows you to reinstate your contract by paying the amount you owe, as well as repossession and related expenses (such as attorney fees). If you reclaim your car, you must make your payments on time and meet the terms of your reinstated or renegotiated contract to avoid another repossession. The creditor must sell a repossessed car in a "commercially reasonable manner" - according to standard custom in a particular business or an established market. The sale price might not be the highest possible price - or even what you may consider a good price. But a sale price far below fair market value may indicate that the sale was not commercially reasonable. Paying the Deficiency A deficiency is any amount you still owe on your contract after your creditor sells the vehicle and applies the amount received to your unpaid obligation. For example, if you owe $2,500 on the car and your creditor sells the car for $1,500, the deficiency is $1,000 plus any other fees you owe under the contract, such as those related to the repossession and early termination of your lease or early payoff of your financing. In most states, a creditor who has followed the proper procedures for repossession and sale is allowed to sue you for a deficiency judgment to collect the remaining amount owed on your credit or lease contract. Depending on your state's law and other factors, if you are sued for a deficiency judgment, you should be notified of the date of the court hearing. This may be your only opportunity to present any legal defense. If your creditor breached the peace when seizing the vehicle or failed to sell the car in a commercially reasonable manner, you may have a legal defense against a deficiency judgment. An attorney will be able to tell you whether you have grounds to contest a deficiency judgment.
What is the difference between repossession and bankrupcty and which one is worse?
For any personal credit related concerns I recomment a website that I know has many very good answers to even the toughest questions. It is an 'ask' site directly on Experian's website which is hosted by Maxine Sweet, the V.P. of Public Affairs for Experian. You can get to the site from the following link: http://www.experian.com/ask_max/index.html A repossession is the term applied to action taken on a defaulted vehicle loan. The vehicle, which is the security of such a loan, is either involuntarily repossessed (taken), or voluntarily turned in. Repossession is simply a word. The derogatory credit issue is the fact that repossession only ever follows default of a loan. A bankruptcy is a legal action with its' own set of ramifications and consequences. Consumers file bankruptcy when they are unable to repay debts. As such, it is serious and can impact their credit for up to 10 years from the date of discharge. Because bankruptcy is a legal action, it appears in the "public records" portion of a consumer's credir report. It requires a disposition, either a discharge or an order to vacate (dismissal). Consumers with ANY legal item in the public records portion of their credit (bankruptcy, tax liens, foreclosures and judgments) take larger deductions to their credit scores for all adverse activity during the reporting period. Therefore, a bankruptcy is considered "worse" on a consumers credit than a repossession.
Why are Indian army vehicle carry a Upward pointed arrow on the number plates?
it indicates military vehwell..all army property in India carries the "up" arrow, so it is not just vehicles, even carbon paper carries the sign to make it obvious that it is military property.. in case of vehicles, the no. after the arrow indicates the year when the vehicle was commissioned into army. The class of the vehicle is stenciled on the windshield, a class A veh is brand new.. whereas a class F vehicle would be earmarked for condemnation/sale. They have another unique tradition, a sold out vehicle should not be driven out of the MT (military transport) park , but it should be pushed out of the gates and then started! that's army way!! hope this helps..Manojcjonam@yahoo.com

What are your rights as a consumer in the US as related to repossessions?
* You have the right to possess any vehicle you do make payments on or have paid for. * You have the right to retain possession of said vehicle provided you continue to make contracted payments toward the unpaid balance of the principle. * You have the right to have your vehicle repossessed if you fall delinquent on your vehicle payments to the contracted lender. * If your vehicle is repossessed, you have the right to recover any actual private property that was in the vehicle at the time of repossession. * You have the right to pay fees for recovering your property that was in the vehicle at the time of repossession. * You have the right to pay all unpaid balances and fees accrued as a result of the repossession process. That's about sums it up. I confess I did substitute "right" for "responsibility" in several places.

A vehicle is a secured debt, therefore bankruptcy action would not reverse the repossession. Bankruptcy only places a temporary halt to repossession or foreclosure of secured property. The only option available to the borrower to recover a repossessed vehicle is to reaffirm the lending agreement or make some other type of settlement with the lender.

How hard do they look for your car when it is about to be repossessed?
Depends upon the company/agent who has the contract for repossessing the vehicle. They only get paid if they recover the vehicle so in most cases they "look pretty hard."

However, if such an order has been issued, the person who is named can be held on a contempt of court charge if he or she tries to interfere with the repossession. Please check your state statutes concerning the type of action repossession agents can employ for recovery of the property.
