Can you sell off acreage if it is on a lien I own 40 acres the house is on 20 acres and the other 20 acres is plotted ready to sell can I sell off the 20 acres?
The property is subject to a lien. The question isn't whether you can sell it. The problem is that the buyer won't buy the property as long as there's a lien on it. Your attorney will need to negotiate a partial release or a full release with the lienholder if you will pay off the lien, or half of the lien, out of the proceeds from the sale of the 20 acres. If you don't pay the lien in full and the lienholder agrees to a partial payment then the lien will still be an encumbrance on your remaining property.

Lien filed against you but no property If you now purchase property will the lien have to be satisfied whenif you sell it?
This may vary by state. If the lien is placed against YOU, that being your wages, then it does not affect the property and it will have a clean title. If they file for a lien against your property, though, you will be required to pay off the lien before selling the property. I'd advise that you don't let the debt collector find out you have the property if you plan on selling it.
What are the repercussions of having a lien on your property?
Your property cannot be sold or mortgaged until the lien is paid. If the lien is substantial the creditor can force a sale of the property. If the lien is for property taxes the town can get a court order, take possession of and sell the property. You should also be aware that interest begins to add up on any judgment lien until it is paid off. The debt will grow larger.

No. The purpose of a lien is to notify the world that you own someone money.

You need to go around and pay it off.

Your sister owns one quarter of a home but has an IRS lien how do you get her name off the house?
Unfortunately, it is too late. The IRS has a lien on your sister's interest in the property. If she was to convey her interest to you, which would be the only way to get her name off the property, the lien would remain on her interest in the property. The only way to get the lien released is to pay the balance due. IRS liens last for ten years and they have thirty days to refile. You cannot sell or refinance the property until the lien is paid.
