Thread: mechanics lien

Hello guys, I just want to ask, if somebody places a lien on a property of the prior owner after the deed is transferred in somebody else name, does that lien follow the new owners and the property even though its against the prior owners?

Yes, but in the first place the lien should not have been placed in the property if the ownership has been transferred prior to the placement of the lien. You should take this up with the one who placed the lien on the property.

I guess, its possible. One of mine friend encountered similar situation like this. By the way, anybody knows the major law in lien transaction?
