Can someone put a lien on my house in California?

In California, a judgment lien can be attached to the debtor's real estate -- meaning a house, condo, land, or similar kind of property interest -- or to the debtor's personal property -- things like jewelry, art, antiques, and other valuables. (In some states, judgment liens can be attached to personal property only.)

Can someone put a lien on my house without me knowing?

Yes, it happens. Sometimes a court decision or settlement results in a lien being placed on a property without the owner's immediate knowledge. This typically occurs when a court-ordered lien or certificate of judgment is issued against you and recorded at the county recordings office.
