There is a bit of confusing concerning the terminology used in the question. A judgment writ is issued to the plaintiff if the lawsuit is won. The judgment can then be executed pursuant to state statutes. The process of filing a lawsuit can begin by contacting the clerk or the administrator of the court of jurisdiction or by retaining legal representation.

If you are owed 150K on a promissory note and the other party is refusing to pay how can you collect?

The creditor(lender) will more than likely have to file a lawsuit against the debtor (borrower) to recover monies owed. If the creditor wins the suit a judgment will be entered against the debtor. The judgment can be executed according to state laws against any nonexempt property belonging to the debtor. The judgment holder should use caution when seizing property, as they can be penalized for incumbering exempted property of the debtor or possibly jointly owned property. The safe and expedient method of enforcing a judgment is by wage garnishment.

Will it hurt you in being able to buy a house or car if you lose a civil suit against you?

Probably, in most cases a judgment is entered against the defendant. A judgment will remain on a person's credit report for seven years from the time of entry and if renewable can be reentered on one's CR. The length of time a judgment remains public record depends upon the laws of the state in which the judgment is entered.
