What Is a Title Lien?

A is a claim on a vehicle's title, which prevents the vehicle from being sold to someone else. The lienholder has a right to repossess or take back the car if the loan or the lease is not paid in time. If the vehicle owner wants to sell their car, he has to pay off all outstanding liens and then register it in his name.

In most cases, banks and financial institutions are title lien holders on cars. They use the vehicles as collateral for loans or leases; when the vehicle owner defaults on payments, the lender can repossess the car. If you would like to understand how to deal with car title lien more seamlessly, DoNotPay can help.

Selling a Car With Lien

If you have a car with a title lien, there are a couple of ways you can go about selling your vehicle. Here's what you need to do:

Sell the car privately: If you want to sell the car to anyone you choose, privately, you can do so without paying off the title lien. However, before finalizing the deal with your buyer, make sure that he is willing to take on liabilities that come with the vehicle. It is important that he or she knows and agrees to pay off outstanding loans and liens in order to register them in their name before making the final payment.
Selling the car in an auction: If you don't have time or money to deal with liens, selling the vehicle at auction may be your best bet. However, it's important that you make sure that the person who wins the auction has the money and ability to pay off the liens. Of course, if you've already taken care of all your legal obligations, you can easily sell the car in an auction and be done with it.
Selling the car to a dealership: If you don't want to sell it in your state, but you still wish to get rid of it, you can ship it to one of the many used car dealerships in other states.

While this process is lengthy and takes time, it is possible. If you want to make it easier and successfully sell a car with a lien, DoNotPay can help you get it done.

How to get Georgia Title Lien Release

There are several steps involved in getting a . Here's what you need to do:

Call the DMV:	The first thing that you need to do is call the Georgia Department of Driver Services (DDS) and get their confirmation number. The number should be on your vehicle registration card. Once you have the confirmation number, you can call the DDS customer service line to get your title lien release form. You need to fax or mail your form to the DDS.
Submit a copy of the lien holder's termination statement:	The next thing that you need to do is make sure that the lender has terminated its lien on your vehicle. This means that it no longer holds a lien on your car title. Lenders are required by law to send out a termination statement when they have completely paid off all their liens. You can get the termination statement by submitting a copy of the signed document to the DDS.
Get a lien release form from a Lender:	Once you have the termination statement and the release form, go to the lender and ask for it. There should be a waiver of liens signed on their website, or they can easily give it to you. You can then submit this document to the DDS with your other documents.
File a certification of title:	You will then need to get this form from the DDS. Once you have it, you will need to complete and sign it, then take it to the DDS for filing. Actually, DDS agents do not file your certificate of title for you. They will give you instructions on where to go and what to do.
Get the certificate of title:	After you have the proof that the lien is void, the DDS will give you a new title certificate within 5 business days. You can get this form from your local DMV office or from the DDS.
