Yes. If, for example, you do not pay your assessments, and a lien is placed on your title, the filing is reported to the credit bureaus, and will show up on your credit report. Your score could suffer.
PAYING a tax lien has no effect on your credit. What would affect your credit score would be to have the lien released. This is the legal disposition to a lien. Have the release recorded at the same courthouse and send the proof of payment and the release to the credit bureaus. Tax liens have no statute of limitations for how long they can show on your credit report. Having the release recorded and shown on your credit triggers the 7 year countdown for when these public records will be shielded. According to Experian the payment of a tax lien, (which do in fact have statute of limitations of 7 years from the date of payment)payment of a tax lien and the subsequent reporting of the release WILL have a negative effect on your credit score. The logic in the world of credit scoring is this; Once a payment has been made on an old account, this constitutes "activity" on a derogatory credit entry. Recent activity on a derogatory account (even though payment should be considered "good") is considered a negative when computing scores.
Generally, tax liens (both state, county and federal) do appear on your credit report and will impact your credit worthiness.

A first lien holder is usually the lender or mortgage holder. Mechanics or Construction Liens do not supercede any lien placed before them or mortgage recorded after the lien is filed. In Minnesota mechanics liens are only enforceable for one year after the last day of service. Any lien holder, regardless of where they are in priority, can file to enforce their lien at anytime during that one year period.
Generally yes, if you qualify as to your ability to pay and your credit score and if there is equity in the property.
