Can I get a car title loan if I'm unemployed?

I want to get a car title loan—I'm unemployed and broke, and I need to pay some bills. However, I'm worried that I won't be able to get the loan if I don't have a job. Is there any way that I can still get this loan?

That’s a good question! Even if you’re unemployed, you should be able to secure a car title loan, but this isn’t a guarantee. Some lenders only require the car title as collateral while other lenders will want to see some form of income or available funds to repay the loan.
Unlike a traditional
car loan
, a title loan company won’t pull your credit. So if you have bad credit, you shouldn’t worry.
These are the only things you need to get a car title loan:
  • Must be 18 years or older
  • A valid ID
  • The vehicle can’t have any liens
  • You must own the vehicle outright
  • You must have original title of the vehicle
If you can pull all of these things together, you should have no problem getting the loan.
