Best Answer

A lien is placed on property when the owner owes money to someone, and the someone wants to ensure that it will be paid back. Liens are only available to secure some kinds of debts.

If a person takes out a mortgage, the bank will place a mortgage lien on the property. This means that when the person sells the property, the mortgage must get paid before the person can receive any proceeds from the sale. If the person pays off their mortgage while they still own the property, the lien will be removed.

In other cases, liens are placed due to judgments and certain kinds of bad debts.
