If liens are filed for prior construction work on a home after a conveyance of the property to a new owner who is responsible?
Clublakers
Anyone who files a claim against property that has already been conveyed is out of luck. That's the reason for the title exam: to determine that the title is clear. The person in charge of recording the deed to the new owner will check the title again in the land records before recording the deed. Once the deed is recorded any creditors of the prior owner who haven't recorded their liens are cut off. Your land cannot be encumbered by someone else's debt that was not recorded prior to the sale.
The only entity who can file a lien against property after it has been conveyed is the town for non-payment of property taxes. Generally, a town has a 2-4 year period after a conveyance to assess the property for unpaid taxes owed by the prior owner. That's why the attorney representing the buyer makes sure that all real estate taxes have been paid up to the date of the conveyance.

If someone files a deed that has property listed that they don't own does this void the deed that was filed?
This is an interesting question. A person cannot convey what they do not own. If there was only one property described in the deed and the grantor does not own that property then that deed is a nullity, in other words, legally void. It would be ignored in the chain of title for that property. If several properties were described in the deed and one was not owned by the grantor then only the "conveyance" of that one property would be null and void and the deed would be effective as to the other properties that were owned by the grantor.
