The title will indicate there is a lien holder. If payed off there will be a release of lien signature.

In the States if you have the title it is lien free.

Nope. In California, the registered owner gets a title that has their name and address as the registered owner and the name and address of the lienholder (if any) is listed below the registered owner's info. When it's paid off, you get a notarized release from the lienholder, take that to the DMV, pay $15, and get a new title in the mail that doesn't include the lienholder.

Also watch out for "salvage" titles.
