PPSA Lien Searches

PPSA Overview

The Personal Property Security Registration system is a notice filing system that records and reproduces information concerning consumer and business loans where goods and other personal property (such as vehicles, furniture, equipment, etc) are used as collateral to secure the loans. The borrower (debtor) and a bank or lender (creditor/secured party) enter into a security agreement where a ‘security interest a.k.a. lien’ is registered against personal property (goods or vehicles) in order to secure the loan.
The notices of the security interests a.k.a. liens on the personal property (goods) are registered in the PPSA system by completing and submitting an electronic document called a financing statement.  The details of these registrations can be obtained by searching an individual name, business name or the motor vehicle VIN number.

What is PPSA (Ontario)?

The PPSR system is a notice filing system that records and reproduces information concerning consumer and business loans where goods and other personal property are used as collateral to secure loans.

Registering a personal property security interest requires the registration of a security agreement or what we refer to as a ‘financing statement’. This registration perfects the security interest in the creditor giving them priority right to the security interest in the personal property, which is some form of collateral. If the creditor fails to register as required by the act, a purchaser may obtain title to the goods or another creditor may obtain security interest in the goods.
