How do you put a lien on a house with out equity?
Equity has little effect upon a lien. It just records the fact that someone has a claim to certain value in the property, regardless of who owns it or who has equity.
In theory you can buy and sell land without any effect upon the liens, as long as the buyers are aware that they are getting encumbered title.

You seem to be describing a life estate. The holder of a life estate in real property cannot sell the property because they don't own it. They can transfer their life interest to another person but it would still end upon the death of the original holder.
The exception is states that allow "Enhanced Life Estates". Florida is one example. The owner of an enhanced life estate can sell the property.

Does the Homestead Declaration in the State of Texas protect you from losing your home in a lawsuit?
The answer depends on the subject matter of the lawsuit. It protects you against creditors but not against lawsuits that challenge the title to the property.
What if there was a will and the house was deeded to the wife what about the contents of the house?
Tenants in common are presumed to each own an equal but undivided interest in "every particle" of the property. As such, the wood is also equally owned, and one owner who cuts it would be "accountable" to the other owners for their share of the value of the wood and perhaps for the diminished value of the property as a whole.
It would certainly be advisable to obtain some form of agreement prior to making permanent improvements or depletions of property owned in common with others.
The other owners could, in theory, sue to stop the cutting or removal of the wood if such an equitable remedy would be justified by the circumstances.
On the other hand, there is nothing preventing the other owners from making a "gift" of the wood to a single co-owner.
Does Stepped-Up Basis apply to property inherited via right of joint survivorship?
No. Survivorship is not an inheritance. When two people own property by survivorship and one dies, their interest is extinguished and the survivor becomes the sole owner.
Yes. However, the only entity that can force the grantor to make the correction is a judge. You should contact the attorney who represented you at your time of purchase. If you were not represented by an attorney, you need to hire one now.
How do you put lien on a property you sold?
You need to have a reason, bring a lawsuit and win. If you are successful in court you need to request a judgment lien and the court will advise you how it can be recorded in the land records against the property owner.
Generally, a waiver is a clause in a mortgage whereby you waive your right to your homestead protection as to that mortgage. A borrower should request that language be added to make it clear the protection is being waived as to only that mortgage.

Can you build 3 houses on quarter acres of land?
Yes 13 houses or 3 Marla Each Or 8 houses of 5 Marla Each.
One acre is around 160 Marla
hence, one quarter acre should contain 40 Marla which is enough for 3 houses
When two persons purchase a home and one payes more into the home how should it be titled?
Honestly, there is no legal answer to this question. It really depends on the two people involved. Since both people are paying the mortgage regardless of percentages (you can't put a percentage on the title) both people are entitled to the property. If something were to go sour between the two people it is not fair that either should lose what they put in. So the ideal adult thing to do would be to have both names on the title because you both agreed to buy it together.
One year is the time limit someone can claim property left behind on someone else's property in the state of California. After the one year time period is up, the item is up for grabs.
Does joint ownership mean equal ownership?
In the United States, there are different forms of co-ownership of real property: tenancy by the entirety, joint tenancy with the right of survivorship and tenancy in common.
- Tenancy by the entirety is a type of joint tenancy reserved for married people only and each party has an equal interest.
- One of the legal requirements of creating a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship is that both parties must have an equal interest. However, joint tenants do not have to be married.
- Two people who decide to own property together as tenants in common each own a half interest unless they set up another arrangement in the deed such as a 60-40 split.
One similar aspect of any type of joint or common ownership is that each owner has the right to the use and possession of the whole property. For example, if A owns a 70 percent undivided interest and B owns a 30 percent undivided interest, B has the right to the use and possession of the whole property.
How can you get someone out of a property that is owned by 3 other people?
The person's share will need to be "bought out" by the other owners, assuming said person is willing to sell. If the matter is one where some of the owners wish to sell and some do not, those wishing to sell their share will need to file a "motion for partitioning" in the appropriate state court. A hearing date will be set at which time all concerned parties may present evidence of ownership and requests for the sale of property and the proceeds to be distributed in accordance with the titling of the property and the laws of the state. The decision as to how or if said property will be partitioned will be made by the presiding judge.
I am assuming there was no will. Generally, in the United States, the estate would pass according to the laws of intestacy where the first sister lived. If the property was in her name it became part of her estate when she died. Generally, the surviving spouse and children inherit when there is no will. If there are no children then you MAY inherit a share as a sibling depending on your state laws. You can check the laws of intestacy for your state at the related question link below.

If you think you have an interest in your sister's estate you should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate to discuss your options.
