You can be sued by the finance company to recover any money still owed to them after they auction the repossessed mobile home.


Can you still owe money after your motorhome is repossessed?

Absolutely. When an item is repossessed, it's typically auctioned off. The person who the property was repossessed from is still responsible for the difference between what the final auction price was and what the amount owed at the time of repossession was. Additionally, repossession, storage, and transportation costs will be added to the amount owed.


If you live in the state of Georgia and there is a lien against your vehicle but no money is owed can they repossess the vehicle?

A lien means that money is owed on your vehicle. If there is no more money owed, then there is no longer a lien, and the vehicle cannot be repossessed.

F a car was repossessed two years ago and you put an old car that a friend had on the road can they come after that vehicle for the money still owed after auction?

No. They can repossess their collateral (the car which was repossessed), and they can send a collection agency to hound you for money, but they can't confiscate your property.

I believe you would owe the difference. If you owed 10,000 on the vehicle and it was repossessed and someone else bought it for 8,000 you would owe 2,000.


Can they repo a leased car 2 months before the end of the contract with payment schedule in place?

READ your lease. The lender can repo as long as you are in DEFAULT. As long as there is money owed on a contract, the collateral can be repossessed IF the contract is in default. Subject to some state guidelines.


Who retains ownership of a vehicle that was repossessed when the borrower has his wages garnished for money still owed?

The lender owns the vehicle and is required to sell it at a public auction for as close to the market value as is possible. It is likely the judgment wage garnishment is a result of money still owed on the original loan amount plus fees that were not covered in the sale of the vehicle.

Can a car dealer in Iowa still make you pay part of loan after a car has been repossessed?

Yes. When a vehicle is repossessed, it gets sold again. The amount received from the sale is deducted from the balance owed (which will now be augmented by repossession fees, storage fees, service fees, etc), and you will still be liable for that amount of money.
