Auto Repossession laws and advice?

Question by Angela: Auto Repossession laws and advice?
Hello! I have a question regarding a vehicle repossession in Georgia. My car was repossessed in November of last year (2009) after I was 3 months past due on my loan. I lost my job and was in college full time and was unable to pay the payments. I tried everything that I could to avoid repossession, however I failed at all attempts. Anyway, I received a letter from the bank shortly after they got the car back that told me that they were going to sell it at a public auction unless I requested a private sale, etc. I did not respond to the letter because I had already tried to sell the car to no avail. I got a letter today telling me that they sold my car on June 30th at an auction for 1800, which leaves a deficiency of ,352.30 that I owe in full within ten days or they will take further action against me. I was wondering what I should do, as I obviously can not pay them. I can barely pay my bills that I currently have. My husband and I are living with his parents, we share a car now and I do not work as I am in college. I graduate in three weeks (Nursing) and will get a job shortly after that (providing that I pass the boards). Would the bank be willing to wait until then? And even then, I can only do a payment arrangment. Also, I thought that the bank was required to tell me when and where the car would be sold so that I could come to the auction if I chose?

Thanks for all help in advance!
I go to school 5 days a week. On Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays, I work at hospitals, nursing homes, drs offices, etc. doing clinicals. I work from 6:30 am until 2:30 pm. On Wednesdays and Thursdays, I go to school from 8:15 am until 2:30 pm. I then go to my husbands job and sit in the parking lot until he gets off work at four and then we drive 30 mins home. The only job I would be able to get would be a part time job, which would be hard working two different shifts with only one car. My husband has one job. We live in a very small town, population less than 10,000 and with an unemployment rate 9% above state average. You think we’re the only ones without a job? I didn’t ask for your criticism, only your advice. You were too busy being judgemental to even answer the question.
And anyway, did I ever say that I was not going to pay the debt? No, I did not. My question was asking if the bank would likely be willing to work out a payment arrangement with me, as I can not pay the lump sum right now.
Thank you, Spock for your answer. To the second poster: This is an example of advice.
The reason I got the car in college was because the original loan was in my dad’s name. My dad got the car for me and made the payments. He later got sick and underwnent open heart surgery and since I had a good, stable job, I told him that I would take on the payments. I then took out a loan in my own name and took over the payments. Had I known then what I know now…. lol

No, they do not have to notify you of any sale. You still owe them and they will make your life miserable until they’re paid. Sorry, but that’s the facts.

No way to tell what the bank might do unless you ask them. They did what they were required by law to do, that they were going to sell it. They don’t have to tell you when & where, because they themselves might not know when.

How To Find The Best Repossession Companies For The Best Eviction Advice.

How To Find The Best Repossession Companies For The Best Eviction Advice.

There are around 100,000 mortgage possession actions instigated by banks and other lenders every year, many of which could have been stopped by prompt action, such as arranging a new mortgage with a repossession company.

If you are facing imminent repossession – or even if you are in mortgage arrears then it’s important to take action quickly. The problem is what action should you take and where should you look for repossession advice?

Overwhelmingly these days people looking for repossession help or repossession companies turn to the Internet. There is a massive amount of information on debt, debt relief, how to get out of debt and in particular articles and websites offering repossession advice (like this one!)

Perhaps the most important repossession advice available is to act quickly. Even one missed payment on your mortgage can be enough to start a downward spiral that quickly leads to a mortgage possession order.

If you’re only facing mortgage arrears, you may wish to turn to a remortgage company. By remortgaging your home you can free up equity from your property that can be used to relieve your debt problems; unfortunately most High St lenders will not lend to you if you face mortgage arrears – that’s why it’s worth scouring the Internet for a remortgage company who specialises in lending to people with credit problems. Try using search phrases like “remortgage help” or “remortgage advice.”

If you have missed several payments then your mortgage lender may instigate repossession proceedings. They will issue a claim form with a N11M, a further form that allows you to explain your position and what you intend to do about your debt. This is the time to act quickly – again, a remortgage company may be able to help you by finding a new mortgage that satisfies the courts that you are doing something about your debt AND gives you the cash to alleviate your debt.

Believe it or not, even if proceedings have gone further than that, there is still something you can do about it – searching for “repossession company” or “repossession help” can furnish you with a great deal of information about what to do in your situation, but essentially, even though it may seem like the last minute to you, a remortgage company can often stop repossession in its tracks – even if an eviction order has been issued.

The bottom line is that courts and mortgage lenders don’t want to take your home away from you – they would far rather the debt is paid off and you are able to continue living in your home. If you can demonstrate that you have the ability to pay off your mortgage arrears then the repossession proceedings will be stopped.

Once things get to the stage of a possession order or even an eviction warrant, you may be left with very little choice in terms of what you can do about it. Unless you can demonstrate a large source of income very quickly your only other recourse would be to a remortgage company who can contact the courts and show them that you have a new payment vehicle in place.

Whatever you choose, it’s important to get the most accurate and appropriate repossession advice available – find a repossession company with trained advisors who can give you professional help for your situation.

Tom Mead is a qualified mortgage advisor writing repossession advice editorial on how best to stop repossession and save your home.
