FAQ
A judgment is good for five years, but any activity of execution on the judgment extends the 5 years.
In Ohio, a judgment lien attaches to all real property owned by the debtor in the county where the lien is filed. However, if the debtor acquires new property the lien will not automatically attach to the newly acquired property as well.
To attach the lien, the creditor files the judgment with the clerk of court of common pleas in any Ohio county where the debtor owns real estate (a home, land, etc.) now or may own real estate in the future.
If the married couple or joint owners of a property do not have a tenancy by the entireties title, any lien can attach to the person's interest in the property. Whether it's judgment or confessed judgment, the lien will attach to the homeowner's interest, making the lienor a co-owner of the property.
2 And given that, under Ohio law, judgment liens do not attach to after-acquired property, this should not really be a title company issue, assuming it is clear as a matter of record that the tax debt was discharged.
If you choose any of these options, it is important that you inform the Common Pleas Court if your address changes. How long will the judgment lien stay on the real estate? A judgment lien on real estate remains in effect for five years.
Regardless of whether any payments are made, your judgment does not last forever. In Ohio, judgments go “dormant” in 5 years after the latter of: (a) when the judgment was issued, or (b) the last time it was used to create a lien, generate a seizure, obtain a garnishment order, or any other similar effort.

This means that although Ohio's statute of limitations for judgment enforcement is at least fifteen years, in reality the best practice is to act at least once every five years so that your judgment does not become dormant. Often judgments are against more than one judgment debtor.
What Do You Do When There Is A Judgment Lien On Your Property, But The Judgment Has Expired? Judgments have expiration dates. If they are not timely renewed, they expire. In CA that is 10 years.
