Generally, if the title to your property was free and clear of any lien by the subcontractor when your deed was recorded then it's too late for the subcontractor to record a lien now. The subcontractor would need to sue the builder in a separate court proceeding in order to get paid. If there WAS a lien recorded by the subcontractor prior to the sale it should have been paid from the proceeds at the closing. Payment of any outstanding liens would be your attorney's responsibility. If the subcontractor contacts you for payment refer them to the attorney who represented you in the purchase.

In Pennsylvania there is a new law that allows subs to file liens against your property even after you have closed and received free/clear title. Look into it if you're buying in PA. TH Properties was the builder, see website formed by the buyers: wheresbuilder.com

Why do most home builders pay closing cost?

A builders willingness to contribute to closing costs is often directly related to the price point at which they are building at. When it comes to affordable housing or "production building", there is generally only a very small profit made on each individual home. These builders price these homes as absolutely low as they possibly can in hopes that they will sell more houses and make up for it in volume. Because of this slim profit margin, it is often difficult to ask an affordable home builder to pay a buyers closing costs. There is ways to get around this sometimes. For instance, a buyer may increase the offered purchase price to offset the request for closing cost assistance. It does depends on the state and area you live in. In RI, closing costs for new construction is not built into the sales price but needs to be negotiated with your realtor and the builder. Protect yourself always by using a buyer's agent that represents you and not the builder. As previously stated, closing costs can be built into a sales price by increasing the price of the home with your offer price.
