this is is South Carolina. The buyer claims the DMV said there was no lien and she is refusing to pay for it so I repossed it. Now she keeps trying to take it away from the person who is wanting to buy it. I want to know if there was something else I should have done besides listing myself as the lienholder on the title.

as long as u have the title to the car its still yours, and u can repo it due to the fact that she hasnt owned up to her part of the agreement, u would have to go to the dmv yourself with the title of and amount of the lien. hopefully u didnt give her the title

Yes your DMV can help you with this. All you do is a title reassignment with them as the registered owner and you as the lienholder. Just make sure YOU possess the title until the car is 100% paid off. DO NOT LET THEM HAVE THE TITLE!!!! I hope you have a crystal clear plan to repo the car once they stop making payments. And I will all but guarantee they will stop. Spend any amount of time here at YA and most of these agreements go down the tubes within a few months. ALWAYS know where the car is. Keep a 2nd set of keys and remotes. Demand a copy of their insurance and call their agent to confirm coverage.

The lien has to be registered with the state's DMV or county clerks office. Get a lawyer and see what he has to say. Unless you have the lien registered, then you didn't repo the car, you stole it from here.
I know that you are in the right, but laws can be funny, and the outcome of some court cases really surprise me sometime.
When you repo-ed the car, did you file any kind of court papers? Like file a claim in small claims or did you just steal it in the night without doing any legal paper work?
Contact a lawyer, and get it straightened out.

go to the bank and have a notary log it in her records book. And of coarse have your name as lean holder. But if the title is still in your name the car is yours If it's in your driveway. You may only take it back if it's on open land or IE ; store If she turned the title into the DMV you need to get the copy with your name on it. If you just gave it to her then forget it. It's time to go to Court. And always keep the police closely informed of what your actions are. Most of all this so called car is not worth sitting behind bars over at any cost... P.S. Never co sing or lean hold Let the person get a lone from the bank. Take what you can get and cut your looses...AJ.LaFrieda IE: (my Father)

You have a place on the back to the title to put your name as lien holder.

She would be trespassing if tries to take it, and she would be steeling it if you have the title.
