Are you considering becoming a co-signer on someone else’s car title loan? Or are you considering using a co-signer for your car title loan? We want to give you all the information about co-signers and car title loans so you can make the decision that is best for you.

If a borrower has a co-signer, that individual may continue making monthly payments until the borrower is able to get back on their feet. But if they don’t have a co-signer, they are encouraged to ask a close friend, spouse, or family member to continue making payments on their behalf.

 

What Is a Co-Signer?

A co-signer is someone who does pretty much what the title suggests: they, along with the person actually wanting to borrow money, sign for the loan. This means that there are two names on the paperwork. Co-signers may be able to help people who can’t qualify for a car title loan on their own. The lender is able to approve a borrower that might not otherwise qualify if they know that someone else can be held responsible for the loan as a backup. They can be any friend or family member with a good financial situation and history.

Why Have a Co-borrower?

Sometimes it is difficult to qualify for a car title loan! Some people have a less than perfect credit score, poor credit, or low income.

At LoanMart, we suggest the use of a co-borrower in these cases to get a title loan.

LoanMart is devoted to give you all the information about co-borrowers and car title loans so you can make the best decision for your financial situation.

 

Who is a Co-borrower?

A co-borrower is a person who can help you qualify for a car title loan and is able to assist with making monthly payments for the loan if needed. They are in the position to help borrowers who can’t qualify for auto title loans on their own. Using a co-borrower can be a good idea to get your title loan approved and processed quickly.

Co-borrowers could be:

  • A relative like an aunt, uncle, cousin or grandparent
  • A parent
  • Best friend
  • A spouse
  • Anyone who supports your financial initiatives
  • … and many more!

 

Add a Co-Signer

If a borrower feels they cannot successfully continue making monthly installments without financial support, or if they simply want a safety net, they are encouraged to acquire a co-signer. A co-signer is an individual whose name appears on the auto title loan contract. They are equally responsible as the borrower for paying back the loan in a timely fashion. In the event that you fail to make a monthly payment, the co-signer will be held responsible for paying back the loan.

Anyone with reasonably good credit can be a co-signer. As long as they meet LoanMart’s requirements for eligibility, they may sign a title loan with the principal borrower. Borrowers can ask anyone close if they would be willing to financially support them in case they come across an unexpected financial crunch.

 

What to Consider Before Having Someone Co-Sign a Car Title Loan

Before asking anyone to co-sign on a loan, borrowers need to understand exactly what they’re asking the co-signer to do. They will be legally responsible for paying the money back if the borrower defaults on any payments. In the event that the borrower defaults on the loan, the co-signer will basically be taking the place of the borrower by making the monthly payments or by paying off the loan completely.

For this reason, the borrower needs to take their loan very seriously if they ask a co-signer to help them secure a car title loan. That co-signer is placing a lot of trust in the borrower to make the payments on time, because the borrower’s financial actions will directly affect the co-signer’s credit as well as their own.

Borrowers should make sure they openly communicate with their co-signer, and do not abuse the trust that co-signer has placed in them. Understand that if anything should happen with the car title loan, the personal relationship between borrower and co-signer could also be negatively affected. Relationships between family and friends are extremely important so it is vital to comprehend the trust entangled in the action of co-signing a car title loan and what might happen if that trust is broken. This does not mean that a borrower should not utilize a co-signer but rather that they should think carefully about it and make the decision keeping all the aspects in mind.

 

Ask LoanMart for Help

If asking someone to help make loan payments isn’t an option, or if you can only acquire financial support for one month, consider asking LoanMart for help.

If a borrower knows they are going to miss a payment, but they need just a little more time to get their finances in order, they can ask for an extension. An extension means LoanMart may grant the borrower a few more days to make their monthly payment.

But if a borrower is going through a tough financial period, they could have their loan terms reevaluated. LoanMart just might be able to lengthen the duration of a loan, lower monthly payments, or make other term adjustments1.
