Unfortunately, it is becoming more and more common to find vehicles with liens and encumbrances, and not only that, but it is becoming common to find vehicles with seals.
When making a transfer in Seville, requesting a traffic report (This can be requested on the spot, without waiting or queuing, directly from our agency.) We will tell you if the vehicle you want to transfer in Seville has any liens or encumbrances. Liens shouldn't pose a bigger problem than other encumbrances, as they can be resolved as long as the debt is settled and the lien is lifted.
But lately, We have found that there are people willing to buy vehicles with recorded liens and transfer them to their name.. Up to that point, everything is relatively correct; that is, you can acquire and transfer a vehicle with recorded liens. But, a very different matter is if it has a recorded lien. Seal, Why? Because if, in addition to the lien, there's a seal on the vehicle, the DGT (Spanish Traffic Authority) won't issue the registration certificate in our name until the seal is removed. So, we'll have bought and transferred ownership of a vehicle in Seville with outstanding charges and a seal preventing us from obtaining a registration certificate in our name. The transfer will be recorded with the traffic authority, but until the lien is paid off and the seal is removed, we won't have a registration certificate.
For all the reasons stated above, if we are buying a vehicle in Seville, and we also want to be daring and acquire a vehicle in Seville with a recorded lien, we must be very careful with the possible impoundments, as they will leave us without any documentation for the vehicle and we will not be authorized to drive it.
