While credit card companies technically have the ability to pursue your home for unpaid debt, it's rare. A debt collector must go to court and get a judgment before it can place a lien on your home. There are limits and exemptions to how much of your home's equity a debt collector can claim.
In most cases, the lien holder (the lender in this case) should send the release to be recorded within 30-90 days. If you aren't sure what the requirements are in your area, reach out to your real estate agent, title agent, or real estate attorney for guidance.
It depends. If the court has invalidated the lien then it could be instantaneous. If you need to contact the “lienholder ” and negotiate then it could take as long as it takes. Unless the courts have invalidated the lien it will be up to how fast the “lienholder” moves.
