Car title loans in Bristol, VA

Car title loans are legal in Virginia from lenders licensed under Chapter 22 of Title 6.2. You can start online; the lender will need to see the car and a lien-free (or nearly paid-off) title in your name.

No more than $2,500, and a lender may not have you owe it more than $2,500 in principal at any time. The vehicle may not already have a lien on it. Most lenders lend a percentage of the car's wholesale value.

Except for fraud or voluntary surrender, the lender may not take the vehicle until you are in default. If it does not mail you a written default notice at least 10 days before repossessing (and you then fail to pay), it may not charge you repossession and sale costs, and it may not repossess before the date stated in the notice. At least 15 days before a sale it must tell you the sale date and the redemption amount, and you may redeem the vehicle any time before the sale. Interest stops accruing once the vehicle is repossessed, or 60 days after a missed payment (unless you are hiding the vehicle). The lender generally may not sue you personally; its remedy is the vehicle.

You generally need the title, because it's what secures the loan. If your title is lost, you can request a duplicate from the Virginia 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, Bristol drivers can start a title loan request online in about 3 minutes.
