In California, a judgment lien on real property lasts for ten years. This means that if a court has ruled in favor of a creditor and placed a lien on your property due to unpaid debts, that lien will remain for a decade.

California Civil Code states that “before recording a lien claim, giving a stop payment notice, or asserting a claim against a payment bond, a claimant shall give preliminary notice.” Anyone who doesn't have a contract with the owner is required to send notice to the: Property owner (or reputed owner)
