A self-help repossession state is one where a creditor is legally allowed to repossess collateral without going through the court system. In these states, creditors can take back the property if the debtor has defaulted on the loan agreement. Self-help repossession states typically have specific rules and regulations that creditors must follow when repossessing property.
