FAQ

Essentially, consensual liens don't adversely affect your credit as long as repayment terms are satisfied. Judgment and most statutory liens have a negative impact on your credit score and report, which affect your ability to obtain financing in the future.

If they are not timely renewed, they expire. In CA that is 10 years. However, when a judgment lien has been recorded against your property, it has no expiration date. This means that it is possible to no longer have a judgment against you, but still have a judgment lien on your property.

In Arizona, you can attach judgment liens only to real estate, meaning land, buildings, and other improvements. When you properly record an Arizona judgment (see below), the lien attaches to real estate the judgment debtor: presently owns, and. acquires later, as long as your judgment lien is still good.

Of the three types of liens (consensual, statutory, and judgment), the judgment lien is the most dangerous form, but one which the informed business owner may be able to eliminate. A judicial lien is created when a court grants a creditor an interest in the debtor's property, after a court judgment.

Arizona's homestead exemption exempts up to $150,000 of a person's equity in their dwelling from attachment, execution or forced sale. The exemption applies to a person's house and land, inium or cooperative, mobile home or mobile home and land.

Yes, a lien may be placed on property that is jointly owned. However, the effects of that lien depend on the type of ownership that the property is under. Before discussing the terms of joint ownership, it's important that you understand exactly what liens are and what they may mean for you and your investment.

There are ways to protect your personal property, such as negotiating a settlement with the creditor or filing for bankruptcy. I suggest that you consult with a local bankruptcy and debt negotiation attorney as soon as possible.

Judgments have expiration dates. If they are not timely renewed, they expire. In CA that is 10 years. However, when a judgment lien has been recorded against your property, it has no expiration date.

The law only protects a maximum of $150,000 of equity, so if the person's equity in a home is valued at more than $150,000 a creditor may force the sale of the property only if the proceeds from the sale would cover the homestead amount plus all liens/debts owed.
