How can you repo a car that's in a locked garage in Ohio?

Ohio Repo Laws

Can your car be repossessed if the California DMV sent you a pink slip with no lien holder and none are listed on your registration?

How do you start a collateral repossession company in South Carolina?

There are no particular laws pertaining to starting a repo company in SC. Of course you must follow the no breach of peace laws which apply everywhere. Some cities in the state require a business license some do not. Most all counties do not. There is no "repo licensing" in SC or NC. Most clients of any size will require that you have a 3 Million aggregate insurance policy covering wrongful repossession along with a One million dollar dishonesty bond. Some clients require certification through a national certification course such as the C.A.R.S. program. Much would depend on the clients you intend to work for.

Can the impound lot keep the items in your vehicle if your car was reported stolen?

No.

Another View: The police may retain any items found in the car pending proof that they actually are your property.

REMEMBER: The car was reported stolen... and then it was recovered and impounded. The perpetrators MAY have used the vehicle during a crime spree and stashed their stolen goods in the car. The owner of the stolen vehicle would not be the beneficiary of the stolen goods just because they were in his vehicle. and they may have to present proof that the items found in the car actually belong to them.

Why did a reply to a question disappear?

There are a number of possible reasons for this, including: * Your answer may not have been unique, i.e., someone else may have given the same basic information in another answer. * Your answer didn't directly address the question. * Your message may have been offensive, illegal, or otherwise inappropriate. This is unlikely, but many nasty people do abuse this free service.

* Your answer may be incorrect.

* Your answer may have been based on opinion rather than fact. * It's also possible that someone has deleted the answer for no good reason, in which case you should be able to find the answer in the question history. If your question has been deleted for no reason, contact a supervisor to deal with the vandal. * Your reply might have been reviewed and seen as a "debate" in the question, and a "running debate" in an answer is something that WikiAnswers attempts to avoid.

* Some people feel that their answer is better than that of others, but they are actually not right. Some, as listed above, will do it for no reason whatsoever. However, supervisors, vandal patrols, and other great contributors may find plain nonsense in your answer, and erase it.

* Should you have a question about why someone took down your post you might wish to ask them or take it to a Supervisor, but be advised that most WikiAnswers contributors do not like to carry on a running debate or argument through Messages on their Message Boards. Tact and restraint are strongly suggested.

Does Michigan require sr-22 filings?

I don't know of a state that won't file an SR-22 if needed. This is a surcharge of points for the state you received a violation in. Example I live in Massachusetts if I drove to New York and was stopped for DUI in New York they would file an SR-22 on my Mass insurance, so they would collect the penalty and they send the money to New York. Usually a SR-22 last for three years.

Is the homeowner or the tenant responsible for damages caused by a tree falling on a rented property?

Homeowner's insurance would be the first recourse. If insurance does not cover the damages the owner of the property would be responsible. The answer above is fundamentally accurate but the tenant is not automatically free of any obligation. If the tenant is renting a home as opposed to an apartment he may have some responsibility for reasonable upkeep and maintenance. If he fails to water the tree for a year and that is the cause of the tree falling, the owner may have recourse against the tenant.

Is a lender in Missouri required to send the borrower a Notice of Right to Cure before repossession action?

No, Missouri has no laws that require the creditor to notify the debtor that a vehicle is subject to repossession.

The lender can have the vehicle repossessed without notice as long as the repossession does not commit a breach of peace as defined by the laws in the jurisdiction where the vehicle is seized.

ADDED: While the above answer may have been correct at the time it was written - it is no longer applicable.

Quote: "As per the UCC, repossession is allowed and permitted as long as it is peaceful, after a Twenty Day Right To Cure Letter from lienholder to debtor. One time cure law in effect in Missouri; all others per contractual agreement." unquote

If you default on your car loan can they take your away your pension?

Not right away.

Generally:

  1. The lender has a reposession company pick up the car and take it to an impound yard.
  2. The lender has the title changed to their name.
  3. The lender sell the car to a wholesaler, usually for the wholesale book value.

From the proceeds the seller recovers the legal fees and the reposession fees. The balance of the money is credited to your account.

Now the lender comes after you for the rest of your account balance. The can:

  1. Negotiate with you and settle for part of the money.
  2. Get a collection company to recover as much cash as they can from you.
  3. Take you to court and now the court can garnish your pension to pay off the debt.

Can a bankruptcy trustee take possession of a car or demand the car value because a lien 'was not perfected in timely manner'?

Yes, the Trustee can and it does happen. Every creditor that has a secured lien must file the appropriate paperwork with the appropriate state agency and in most states, doing it within a certain number of days. Normally 20. If they don't do it timely, the Trustee can avoid the lien because it is voidable. In bankruptcy, Trustees have the power to void certain types of liens and unperfected or faulty-perfected liens are one of them. What to do? Easiest is to give the car to the Trustee. Then you may want to consider a separate cause of action against the car dealership for faulty perfection filing. May be able to recover the fair value of your use of the car. You won't have to pay the note back on the car. More opinions from FAQ Farmers: * Probably. You always have the right of appeal, though. And then a judge would decide if it is allowable.
