Texas is one of a few states that allows for 100% homestead protection, meaning your primary residence cannot be seized to satisfy most judgments. Additionally, Texas law provides exemptions for personal property, retirement accounts, and certain types of insurance policies.
A mortgage is a specific, voluntary lien. It is specific to the piece of property and is voluntary because it was agreed to by the property owner. A judgment lien is an example of a general, involuntary lien. Judgment liens can be applied against any of an individual's assets.
Satisfy the Judgment: Paying the debt in full is the most straightforward way to remove the lien. Obtain a satisfaction of judgment from the creditor and file it with the court.
The notice must be sent via USPS-certified mail or another traceable delivery method that confirms receipt. Keep the receipt for your records. The notice should be sent to both the property owner and the general contractor. Sub-subcontractors are advised to also send a copy to the subcontractors above them on the job.
Requesting a Writ of Execution Another way a creditor may try to collect their judgment is through a writ of execution. A writ of execution allow the debtor's non-exempt property to be seized and sold. The proceeds from the sale go to the debt owed to the creditor.
