Legally, I doubt it can be required. And if you do your research you can probably find out how to. But if you don't really know what you are doing there is great potential to be defrauded. and to be candid, somebody reading this advice probably would be in over their head.

Can you sell your house if you have a judgment lien against you that is not associated with the house?

Generally, in some states a judgment lien affects all the property owned by the defendant in the county where the lien has been recorded in the land records. Once recorded it prevents the sale or mortgage of any real property owned by the debtor. However, in other jurisdictions a specific property must be listed in the body of the lien. In either case, the lien will be reported as part of a title examination ordered by the buyer's attorney. The attorney will need to verify that the lien doesn't affect the property to be purchased and the sale will proceed. However, if there is no clearcut confirmation that the house property is not affected, the buyer's attorney and buyer's bank will insist the lien be paid off.

How do you file property lien in Illinois?

Since you chose this category, apparently you want to file a lien against a condominium unit owner's title to their property. Best practices dictate that your association attorney can help you. You need your governing documents, which specify when to file a lien, and you need the ledger of the non-paying (assessments) owner. With this information your association attorney can file the lien in the local courthouse. In order to release the lien, your attorney will add all fees and expenses to the amount due -- in addition to the unpaid assessments, so that the association bears no expense in this process. _______________ In non-association matters, it remains a good idea to involve an attorney. Be prepared with the proof of the debt owed and your standing (with rights to collect) in the matter.


What if someone has sold you a car with a lien?

I think you may have meant "lien" instead of "lean". A lien is a monetary (money) debt placed against a possession by a creditor who has not been paid by other means. If an owner sells his cat on which a lien has previously been placed, the lien belongs to the person (i.e. the other person who owned the possession before); a lien does not "follow" the car or other possession, it follows the person who owes the debt. If a seller sold you a car with a lien against it, you need to contact an attorney to get the lien removed from your-now-owned car. You or your attorney needs to notify the creditor/lien holder that you bought the car without knowledge of the lien. The creditor would then need to identify a different possession owned by the other person in order to attach the lien to that possession, and not to your car.

Is there any laws against renting or selling a house that has a current lien against the home In Parkersburg West Virginia?

No. If you sell the home, the lien will need to be paid in closing. Renting the home won't make a difference, however, if the lien holder forecloses on the loan, you may breach the lease and have to compensate the tenant.


You have filed and recorded a lien Do you need to update it to keep it active you do not want to foreclose you want to get paid if they try to sell the house or refinance?

Each state is different. You may be able to file extensions or you may have a time limit to sue or "perfect" the lien. Once you sue, it would then become a judgment for the amount of the lien plus attorney costs and would be filed against the person, preventing them from buying or selling anything. A lien only prevents activity on the property on which it was filed.


When you buy the lien do you own the property?

No. You must foreclose on the lien. You would need to consult an attorney and follow the correct legal procedure before you could acquire ownership. Even then, you have no right to ownership unless you are the highest bidder. Others may bid against you.


Free lien advice If I am a spouse and I am on title How do I put a lien on for my share of equity?

You won't file a lien per se. If you are separating from your spouse, you need to see a divorce attorney. He or she will file your divorce at the courthouse, and your equity in the house will be determined by the court. Your attorney may file a lis pendens, which will serve as notice to anyone whom it may concern that your divorce is pending, and you are seeking a share of equity, but this is not required.
