You are not normally notified ahead of time. You are normally notified of the intention to a writ of execution as an when it comes into effect. If you are not notified at all, then third parties cannot carry out actions required under the writ of execution.

A Writ of Execution means that a creditor has prevailed in a case against you. The moment the decision in the case is rendered and the execution is issued the award begins to accrue interest in favor of the plaintiff. The rate in Massachusetts is 12%. That means the debt begins to grow. It will be reported to your credit record. A Writ of Execution can be effective for up to 20 years depending on the law in your state.

If you own real property the execution can be recorded in the land records and you cannot sell or refinance your property until the execution has been paid in full. The execution can be used to seize any property you own or to freeze any bank accounts in your name as long as the plaintiff is motivated to seek out your property. There are services for hire that do an amazing job finding assets.

Even if you don't own real property right now, if you should purchase a home during the period the execution is active it can be recorded in the land records and will become a lien on the property.

Writ of possession versus writ of execution?

The writ of possession is nothing more than a complement of the writ of execution which, without the former, is ineffective; for it would be useless to order a sheriff to sell a real property of a judgment debtor if after the sale is made in the manner provided by law the purchaser, after the expiration of the period of redemption, may not enter upon the possession of the property thus purchased
