Florida Boat Lien for Title Loans:
There are various reasons to file a Florida boat lien for a title loan:
- Firstly, lending money to an individual or company that already owns a boat
- Secondly, loaning someone money to buy a boat.
- Lastly, financing boat repairs or improvements for someone that owns a boat.
All of the above circumstances would require a title loan agreement to be signed by you and the registered owner(s) on file with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Once that is done, you will be granted as “ Title Lienholder” and the boat could NOT be sold or transferred into anyone else’s name until they paid you back and a release of lien is recorded with DMV records. Even if they moved out of State.
What happens if they don’t pay you back? You could enforce your Florida Boat Lien and re-posses the boat. The title would be transferred into your name for non fulfillment of contract. Then you would own the boat so you could sell or keep it. It is highly recommended that a title lien/loan agreement be signed AND recorded by both parties BEFORE any loans or financing is given. Southern Title Liens provides Florida Boat Lien Filing Services to help you accomplish this. Contact us for a quote today 727-286-7150. All fees can be recuperated by adding them to your loan agreement.
