Car Title Loans for the Unemployed

Many times in life we can find ourselves in a situation where we need money very quickly. And for people who are between jobs this can be even harder. Are you wondering if you can get a car title loan unemployed?

Unfortunately, financial emergencies don’t typically happen when the timing is good. They hit when things are rough or when people are already dealing with financial problems. And if you’re unemployed, needing a cash loan can be that much more stressful.

Sometimes, financial problems hit people when they have a bad credit score. You may be dealing with a need of income for school or college, medical expenses, car repairs, rent, a mortgage, business expenses, or a number of other difficult situations. This is when a short term loan can sometimes be very helpful.

In these difficult times when you or a friend or family member find yourself unemployed but needing a quick cash loan, one question you will likely ask:

Is It Possible To Get A Vehicle Title Loan Unemployed?

The answer is: It depends, but in some cases yes! For this situation we will focus on the state of California, since that is the primary region The Net Lender services. In the state of California, to get a pink slip loan, one must meet the following criteria.

Please understand that this criteria is set by the Department of Business Oversight in California and is subject to the rules and regulations they set. The lender must abide by these rules.

  • An income of at least $1,200 a month – doesn’t have to be employment income.
  • A car, truck, or SUV that is generally worth at least $4,000 and up.
  • A credit score, generally above 515 or 520 but this can vary.
  • The actual pink slip to the vehicle.
  • Full coverage insurance on your car, pickup truck, or SUV. Why? The lender will be taking a financial interest in your vehicle and if there is damage to your vehicle, the lender will want you to be able to pay off the loan.
  • A vehicle with less than 200,000 miles.
  • A clear title, and in most cases non-salvage title.
  • Picture ID
  • Photos of the vehicle and documentation.

These are the basic criteria to get a title loan in California. There are more variables involved, so it is best if you call us today to find out how much you can qualify for. There is no risk or hassle in calling. Our representatives are polite, professional, and can explain to you quickly how our loans work and help you determine if you qualify for a loan. You can reach us toll free at a (888) 539-4465 to find out if you qualify.

How Our Auto Title Loans Work

Now that you know it’s possible to apply for a car title loan even when unemployed, we’ll discuss how our loans work. While you don’t need to have a job to apply for a loan, you do need to have a monthly income of $1,200 or more, as stated above. This money could come from disability, retirement, savings, etc. It doesn’t have to be income strictly from employment.

The lender needs to know you can repay your loan before approving you. Likewise, you shouldn’t apply for any kind of loan unless you can afford to repay it. We make it simple to apply and get approved quickly.

You can fill out our online application or call and apply by phone. It’s quick and easy and best of all, obligation-free. You can ask questions, find out if you qualify and get an estimate for monthly payments before deciding if you want to take a loan with us.

How Much Money Can I Get With A Title Loan?

Many California residents call us on a weekly basis trying to find out just how much they can get with a car title loan. The amount will vary on different factors. The amount of cash you get is determined by the value of your car. Your vehicle is the collateral for your loan, so the more equity you have in your car, the more cash you could qualify to receive. We don’t base the amount off of your credit (or lack thereof) but we do ensure you can afford a pink slip loan before approving you.

Understanding Cash Title Loans

When you decide to consider applying for our California auto title loans, we feel it’s important that you fully understand how they work and what they’re about. Many times people use this type of loan for a short-term situation. Because credit is not a factor, more people qualify for title loans versus bank loans and traditional alternatives.

You use your vehicle as collateral to secure the funds you need. You make your monthly payments while continuing to drive your car. Once you’ve repaid the loan in full, we return your title to you. It really is that simple. Our loan representatives will gladly answer any questions you have about our loans and can explain the process in greater detail upon request. We want you to be comfortable when you apply with us so should you have any concerns at all please get in touch with us.
