Maybe. It depends upon how the property is titled and to whom the judgment is against in relation to how the property is titled, (TBE, JTC, JT, etc.).

However, the usual judgment execution would be as a lien against the property not a forced sale. Forced sales of primary residence is possible but is costly and time consuming for the judgment creditor and therefore is rarely used as an option to recover a judgment award.
