In order to have an enforceable security interest, the party's security interest must first "attach." Attachment occurs when (1) the creditor gives value, (2) debtor has rights in the collateral, and (3) there is an authenticated and signed security agreement, or the party takes control or possession of the collateral.
Other types of intangible personal property include life insurance contracts, securities investments, royalty agreements, and partnership interests.

DOES MARYLAND HAVE A PROPERTY TAX ON CARS? Maryland does not have any personal property tax on personal vehicles; however, Maryland State imposes business personal property tax.
Personal property is considered Class II property and is taxed at 20 percent of market value. Market value multiplied by 20 percent equals the assessment value, which is then multiplied by the appropriate jurisdiction's millage rates to determine the amount of tax due.
Each tax rate is reported to the Department by local governments each year. Although the state does not have persona​l property tax rates, there are some counties that do.
