Can a salvage title be due to theft?
Assuming that the vehicle was stolen and not recovered for more than 6 months, then yes you can have a salvage title on a stolen automobile because the insurance company would write it off as a total loss after six months just as if it was wrecked. My truck currently has a rebuilt title due to this exact reason. It was not recovered for 8 months and by that time the insurance company had written it off. That being the case I got a heck of a deal on a nearly new truck and while the resale value will be less, the price I paid for it was a lot less than a clean title would have been so it averages out.
Does homeowners insurance cover a car stolen off your property?
No, Never. An auto theft would have to be covered by the vehicle owners comprehensive auto insurance policy. A homeowners Insurance policy is not liable for the theft of a vehicle. that's what Auto Insurance is for. If an Auto Owner chooses not to purchase a Comprehensive auto Insurance Policy then they assume the risk of a total loss in the event of a theft. The vehicle owner can not seek to shift liability to another person simply because it was on their property when the vehicle was stolen. If this were the case then every time a car is stolen from the parking lot of a store or shopping mall people would expect that business or property owner to pay for their loss.

The loan on the original car was secured by the title of the vehicle. When it was stolen, your insurance company should have paid the value of the vehicle first to the lender then any remaining money should go to the owner. If the owner is "upside-down" in the vehicle he/she will be required to pay off the remainder of the note at that time or make arrangements to pay it off. No, the loan cannot be applied to another vehicle. A new loan must be negotiated.
