What documents do I need for a title loan in Phoenix?
To get a title loan in Phoenix, you'll need: (1) Your vehicle title in your name showing you own the car free and clear, (2) A government-issued photo ID like a driver's license, (3) Proof of income such as pay stubs, bank statements, or benefit letters, and (4) Proof of residence like a utility bill or lease agreement. Most borrowers already have these documents on hand, which is why the approval process is so quick.
