Sure. (Of course, the people with the judgment will likely attach it to the property and sell it to get paid).

Which is one reason if your going to want to get a mortgage to buy the house, even with a fairly substantial down payment, that will be very, very tough. Especially with the complete aversion to subprime lending in todays market, (with judgments, your clearly subprime)

If you owe money to a hospital will they take your house?

A hospital can petition the court for a judgment on an unpaid hospital bill. If successful they will obtain an execution against the property that will be recorded in the land records. The property cannot be refinanced or sold without paying the lien off. If the lien is substantial the hospital can sieze and sell your property to satisfy the judgment. You should seek the advice of any free legal assistance offered in your community to see what your options are.
