What Are Title Loans Hanahan, SC?
A title loan is a loan made against the value of your car. When a title loan is approved, the hard copy of the title to your vehicle is held by the lender until the full amount of the loan is repaid. Afterwards, the title is returned. The possession of the vehicle itself remains with the borrower throughout the entire loan.
Anyone who legally owns a motor vehicle like a car, truck, or SUV may be eligible for a title loan. Because the loan amount if based on the value of your vehicle and the title is secured as collateral, a credit check is unnecessary. This means even those with bad credit may be approved for a title loan.
Co-owners of a vehicle are also eligible for a title loan so long as they inform the other parties involved in the ownership of the vehicle and obtain signed consent.
If you are the owner of a vehicle but have misplaced the hard copy of your title, we offer help in filling out the necessary paperwork to get a new copy.
