Frequently asked questions

Can I get a title loan in Durham, NH?

Title loans are legal in New Hampshire from licensed lenders. You can start online; the lender will need to see the car and a lien-free (or nearly paid-off) title in your name.

Can I refinance my title loan in Durham?

Often, yes. Some lenders let you refinance an existing title loan into a new loan with a different payment amount or term, and a new lender may be able to pay off your current one. Options depend on your vehicle's value, your income and New Hampshire rules. Enter your details on our form to see what lenders in our network can offer you. It takes about 3 minutes.

How do title loans work in Durham, NH?

You share details about your vehicle and income, the lender estimates the car's value, and if you're approved you receive an offer based on a portion of that value. You sign the agreement, the lender records a lien on your title, and you get your funds, often quickly. You keep driving while you repay. Start your request online and see your options in about 3 minutes.

Can I get a title loan on a financed car in Durham?

Sometimes. If you still owe money on your car, some lenders may approve a title loan based on your equity, meaning the car's value minus what you owe. Others require a title that's fully paid off and in your name. Because policies vary, enter your vehicle and current loan details on our form, and lenders serving New Hampshire will tell you what they can offer.

Can I get a title loan without the title?

You generally need the title, because it's what secures the loan. If your title is lost, you can request a duplicate from the New Hampshire motor vehicle agency, and some lenders can help with that step. If the title isn't in your name, it will need to be transferred first. Once you have it, Durham drivers can start a title loan request online in about 3 minutes.

Can I get a title loan with a salvage or rebuilt title?

It's harder, but not always impossible. Many lenders require a clean title, while some will consider a rebuilt title after the car has passed inspection. Salvage titles are rarely accepted because the vehicle's value is hard to confirm. If your title is branded, mention it on our form so lenders serving Durham can tell you upfront whether they can help. It takes about 3 minutes.

Do I need to visit a store in Durham?

No. You can request offers online from a phone or computer. Some lenders, especially title lenders, may ask you to visit a location or send photos of your vehicle.
