Loan payoff — What You Need to Know
The buyer is paying off the seller's outstanding auto loan as all or part of the purchase price. The transaction includes coordinating directly with the seller's lender to release the title.
Seller guidance
Request a formal payoff letter from your lender with the exact amount due and the payoff good-through date. Provide your lender's payoff mailing address and instructions to the buyer. Do not accept buyer funds before ensuring a clean mechanism for the lender to release the title — your lender will not release the lien until full payment is confirmed.
Buyer guidance
Pay the lender directly whenever possible to eliminate the risk of the seller pocketing funds. Confirm the lien release timeline with the lender: typically 10–30 days after payoff. Do not register the vehicle in your name until you have the clear title in hand.
Legal note
UCC § 9-513 requires a secured party (lender) to send a termination statement within 20 days of a written demand after the debt is satisfied, or within 20 days of the debt being satisfied if no demand is made and no further commitment exists. State motor vehicle codes impose similar obligations — e.g., California Vehicle Code § 5753 requires lienholders to release within 30 days. Failure to release can expose the lender to statutory damages.
Loan payoff checklist
- Obtain a written payoff letter stating the exact amount and expiration date
- Confirm lender's payment acceptance method (wire, cashier's check) and address
- Structure the transaction so the lender receives payment directly from buyer
- Get confirmation of payment receipt from the lender in writing
- Wait for lien release document or electronic release before completing DMV title transfer

Bothell Loan payoff utv template — when to file
Washington requires title transfer within 15 days of the sale date on the bill of sale. For loan payoff transactions specifically, file at DOL Vehicle Licensing – Bothell (Visit https://www.dol.wa.gov for the nearest Bothell, WA office) during normal hours: Mon–Fri 8:30 AM–4:30 PM. Miss the 15-day window and Washington typically charges a late-transfer penalty plus accrued use tax, and the seller can remain on the title for civil liability until the buyer completes retitling. Bring the signed title, the completed Bothell bill of sale, your government-issued ID, and payment for the $12.00 title transfer fee plus 8.00% sales tax on the purchase price.
Template reminder. Whether you keep your template as a blank template you fill in by hand, both buyer and seller should leave the signing with an identical executed copy. The buyer needs the original to present at DOL Vehicle Licensing – Bothell; the seller keeps a duplicate to prove the date of transfer if a future liability question arises before the title fully retitles.
