The letter you get is a lien satisfaction or lien release. When I paid off my loan, they release the lien and I have a clear and free title.Sold my 2010, ran out of payload. The lienholder must print the letter on the official letterhead of the loan company, and an authorized officer must sign the letter. Either you or your attorney can send them a letter with a copy of the plan and the discharge order and request that they release the title. It's a convenient and easy way to fill out the details, allowing you to go at your own pace and complete it as your schedule allows. Customer: Please release the lien. Lawyer's Assistant: OK. Got it.
