They were amazing! They got me plates and registration for my out of state, gifted vehicle in 20 minutes total! If you loathe the dmv like I do, then you won't regret for a second to pay the nominal fee for La Casita to handle your paperwork and more. Keep in mind that if you try this yourself with the dmv, you'll likely make 3 separate trips back and forth. Let alone how confusing the paperwork is for transfers of ownership like this. Worth it! Time IS money. read more

La Casita - Outside - Business Financing Near Me - Encinitas, California

I just want to start off with saying I've never wrote a review ever on yelp. DO NOT COME TO THIS PLACE the people working there have a terrible attitude and don't know how they're still in business. I went in there to send money and the guy told me I couldn't.... No explanation no nothing. I asked for a reason and was told he didn't have to tell me. Terrible service don't waste your time here read more

Out of state registration--forget the DMV and come here. Exceptionally friendly and professional service. Appropriately detailed while still very timely. All paperwork completed quickly and efficiently. In and out with new registration and plates in hand in less than 30 minutes -- worth the service fee and highly recommend. read more

This is place to go if you want to register your out of state car. Fran was helpful and told me what documents needed in order to get it done. She made the process so much easier. The best part: when I was done, I left La Casita with my actual license plates. Don't waste your time on DMV lines. Just go there and get it done. read more

Was recommended this shop for a quick DMV registration by my girlfriend who had recently discovered it upon visiting auto zone. Given with everything going on in the world currently, many storefronts are closed temporarily. Thank you Fran for providing excellent and friendly service. Not only does the shop provide DMV services, it also has many consumables and goods you would find in a Mexican store or restaurant. When I wrote this review I did not realize that I had entered the shop an hour before their official hours and they never brought it up and still uploaded their system to help me out. WOW, sometimes it is hard to find good people in this area who will go out of their way like that. read more

La Casita - Front of store - Business Financing Near Me - Encinitas, California

Not sure what legit business happens here but they do not do the business (DMV services they advertise) but they remain open.

Great service. Was amazed at how fast I was able to register my out of state vehicle. I highly recommend this place!

This place is seriously 5 stars all around. Customer service A+ Helpfulness A+ Gorgeous Smile A+ Thank you for helping us get everything sorted. This is the only place I'm going to be doing dmv related work now. Thank you SO MUCH! read more

Fran was a pleasure to work with! She went out of her way to ensure our car registration needs were handled. I definitely recommend them for their DMV services! read more

I met an angel here today. I don't know her name but she was kind and loving and felt my anxiety. She helped me efficiently and accurately. I do not live in the state and she changed my life by helping me. read more

This place is an absolute gem! SO much more efficient and kind than the zombie beaurocracy at DMV. The nominal fee that saves you from a DMV line or experience that shortens your life? Please people, don't complain! Pay it and marvel that you got taken care of in minutes and WITH A SMILE!!! read more

If you are a dealer you need to bring your business to LA CASITA!!! I was so pleased with the service that Francisca provided omg, i had dealt with other agencies in CA and she was definitely the most helpful. As a dealer from out of state there are some bumps on the road when filing paperwork. Not only did Francisca provide the best customer service and was amicable but she knows her stuff!! I dealt with an arrogant agency that claimed to have 30 years of experience, i called that agent back and fired her on the spot. I WILL ALWAYS TAKE MY BUSINESS HERE!!! Thank you to La casita and to the best; Francisca for being so wonderful and patient and answering all my questions. Come here and you will not want to go else where for your next DMV services. read more

The nice lady who answered the phone gave me a lot of great information, even though her office couldn't license my vehicle. She told me what to take to the DMV and that I needed a smog too. Very helpful! read more

I wish I could give La Casita 10 stars! Francisca made my title transfer process extremely quick and simple. I couldn't be more pleased and really appreciate how nice they treat you here. Genuine people who actually want to help you out and get you on your way. Almost wish I had more reasons to go back and say Hi to Francisca again, she was amazing! Muchisimas gracias. read more

Francisca was fantastic! She helped me complete a VIN verification and she was so friendly and quick to get the paperwork signed off. Really appreciate having a DMV type service without the DMV wait time! I will definitely be back - visit them at their new location right off of El Camino Real (next to the Drake Veterinary Center)! read more

Too many nice things to say about this place, but I'll keep it short... Francisca was very helpful with the process of transferring the title of my Dad's vehicle over to my name. She answered every question with a smile. This was now my secound time going here and each time was so easy. The DMV is such a pain, confusing and not a friendly place to visit. Save time and hassle by going to La Casita for all of your registration needs. Be prepared to spend a little more and pay in cash. I was in and out in less than 10 minutes. Worth it. read more

Thank you Fran for a job well done with your 5 star service. Very nice and friendly.

Fran was the sweetest and made everything super quick and easy! She answered all of my questions with no problem and was 100x better than dealing with the DMV, highly recommend going here! read more

At La Casita today to transfer my car title . Fran is Veneto s professional and friendly . I ll refer all my friends to go to this place instead of long lines at DMV. Fran: please correct my address typo :) read more

La Casita is the best! Although they have moved locations they are still local and in Encinitas right off el Camino real. They make it so easy and there's never a line. I highly recommend using these services available as it will save you valuable time. Will return and will continue to recommend to others. Hope they can help you too read more

Quick and easy car registration renewal and friendly. What DMV line? Convenient and my day off won't be spent at the DMV.

Heads up - this business is CASH ONLY. I came to get my registration renewed, having stopped at the bank first to get a bunch of cash as my debit card was currently non-functional. Well, it turned out there were some late fees that I didn't expect, and I was $10 short! However, since I'd already been to the bank and back, Francisco generously went ahead and renewed by registration anyway! Not spending a day at the DMV was well worth the added $30 fee for getting it done here. read more

Fast, quick, and easy. It took about 10-15 minutes to reregister my car, all you need is the previous registration. I paid online and didn't receive it in the mail for some time so I decided to come in get my new tags and registration. They take cash only but there's a atm close by (inside the 7-11). Another problem I ran across is that they double there fee if it's a late registration even though you paid online on time so if you decide to do it through them, make sure you do it before your registration is expired. There is no line to wait in and the staff are experienced and friendly. read more

I went into La Casita for the first time yesterday after being referred by a friend. Fransica was welcoming, informative, and ever so helpful. She assisted me with a vehicle title transfer and registration. The process was so quick and easy. I will skip the dmv every chance I can and support this amazing local business. read more

Support small business. La Casita is a treasure in our post-covid world - they provide efficient, friendly service for DMV related business, such as renewing vehicle registration, without the DMV headache. How fast? I got new tags in less than 10 minutes. I can't say the same if I went to the DMV. Support La Casita, support great family-owned small business. read more

I was highly referred to La Casita to process my DMV new car registration by the folks at my local smog test shop. Fran was so knowledgeable and friendly, and she saved me a ton of time and money. Highly recommended. read more

This is my 2nd time coming to La Casita. I recently moved and didn't get my registration renewal notice in the mail. I went straight here and gave the nice lady my current registration, she looked up my info, I paid my fee (cash only), and she gave me my stickers right on the spot. This whole process took less than 5 minutes. I didn't have to wait in line, or wait for my tags in the mail. This was so fast and convenient. I'd definitely recommend this place to anyone and will be coming here for all my registration needs. read more

Francisca was very helpful with the process of transferring the title of my vehicle over to the buyer after it was sold. There were some things with the transaction that were confusing and the DMV made it even more difficult. Francisca thoroughly explained the situation, Translated english to spanish for the buyer of the vehicle, and was friendly through the entire experience. I highly recommend going here for any of your DMV needs, if they cannot take care of it they will point you in the right direction and kindly explain what needs to be done. Worth the small fee to work with kind and helpful people, plus you stay away from the DMV. Thank you for your help; it was much appreciated. read more

I decided to give this place a try instead of going to the DMV, which also happens to be closed right now (COVID-19). Francisca was very pleasant and helpful in doing a title transfer for me and although they are cash only, the super fast service is completely the opposite of what you would get at the DMV. I would highly recommend going here for title transfers instead of wasting 4 hours of your life at the DMV. 5 STARS! read more

I am a nurse at a ER room and I had an elderly patient who needed assistance in getting her registration up to date. Fran was extremely helpful and really helped me figure out a plan for the patient. It is good to know there are still good people with a good heart out there. Thank you Fran. Bless your heart! read more

I'm so thankful I decided to stop in and see if this little DMV shop could help me get everything I needed updated. I've dreaded going to the DMV for months now. Just as I was thinking I really had better go tomorrow, I remembered seeing a DMV sign outside this place. I swung in at 4:45pm, no line, very friendly and helpful woman took care of my paperwork, I even paid off a parking ticket I had forgotten about last year. Service fee for everything was $30 as they are a third party. Well worth it! Time to get to the closest DMV, standing in lines, being helped by government employees, and the drive home would have likely taken 4 hours of my life. Instead it took 10 min, I left with a smile, and freed up a large part of what my day tomorrow would've been. read more

Great little place to do your registration nice people know exactly what they're doing I enjoy the whole experience

I just discovered that DMV business partners exist today and am so happy that I found one! Due to a move my registration stickers never reached me and I was in need of new ones. La Casita not only updated my address with the DMV but printed my new replacement stickers ON SITE! I was in and out of their office within 10 minutes. As a cherry on top the woman helping me could not have been more firendly, helpful or knowledgeable. read more

I was absolutely dreading everything about transferring my car from AZ to CA. La Casita made it so easy!! I'd highly recommend anyone and everyone to go here. Personable service, absolutely no wait time when I went. Thank you!!!! read more

This is the place you go when you got too much going on to be able to hit the DMV. It looks jankie but it's totally legit. I've used them twice now and appreciate the ease each time. read more

Just go online to the DMV website... Its faster AND easier to renew your registration. Even if you're late, it's still cheaper than going here. read more

My husband and I went to her to get our Vin verification done and Francisca was super nice and helpful. She mentioned we could get our out of state registration completed with her and at the time we were going thru the dealer but we went ahead n referred the info to our dealer. We would go to La Casita anytime. Very painless and quick!!! read more

Went in to transfer a title for a new truck and was out of there in about 10 minutes. Charge $75 but well worth it in time saved and the headache of going to the DMV. Just a heads up they only take cash for these services so make sure you have it with you or there's an ATM next door. They'll also take cashier's checks which was good since I'm running this through my business account read more

Hands down the best place to go for DMV registration issues Easy, fast, friendly, convenient. Who knew this even existed, only when I googled closest dmv did this pop up. Thought I was going to have to get up at crack of dawn to get in that dreaded line at the DMV. Huge relief. And if this hasn't got your attention then maybe their late hours will, open till 7:30? Thank you for unbelievable great service!! read more

I'll never go to the normal DMV for registration needs - ever again. My husband and I needed to transfer ownership/registration of a vehicle and I found La Casita online while I was searching for nearby DMV locations. (As it turns out, you can't get an appointment with the DMV for months, and their telephone wait time is advised to be up to 10 hours.) La Casita had no line - and Fran took care of the paperwork for me in 5 minutes time (with a smile!). I called ahead to get information about the fees - and she let me know that it was cash only - so I came prepared. What would have taken hours at the DMV was done on my lunch break. Kudos to this place! read more
