Best Answer

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.

How much does the world's largest house cost?

It would be more money than I'll ever see. The prices of houses is strongly dependent on the area, state, and region of the country that you would like to buy. A sample of 3 bed, 3 bath, 2 car garage, with a cap of $1,000,000 resulted in the following ranges: Sacramento CA from $869,000 (w/.07 acres) to a low of $99,000 (w/.18 acres) Trenton NJ from $559,000 (w/.17 acres) to a low of $259,000 (w/.09 acres) Albany GA from $339,000 (w/17.6 acres) to a low of $174,000(w/.2 acres) Olathe KS from $650,000 (w/9 acres) to a low of $155,000 (w/1.8 acres) Things other than price vary widely, for example acreage and size. In the NJ listing, the acreage was always minimal to fit the house on the lot; in the KS listings there were many examples in these price ranges with generous acreage. The lower listed in KS was actually a beautiful 4 BR and in the same price range there were 5 and 6 BR with good acreage; in the CA and NJ listings, the lower priced units were not very good neighborhoods. There are many more variables not mentioned here; there are some areas where you get much more for the same money in other areas. You can do your own research. Below is a link to the site that I find the most comprehensive and easy to use.
