FAQ

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.

The joint account held in the entireties, therefore, cannot be attached by a statutory lien, without the prior permission of the non-debtor account holder.

Involuntary Liens On the contrary, an involuntary lien can be placed on a property regardless of whether the owner wants it on their property. In other words, an owner's property can be claimed against their will if payments aren't made in a specified time period.

Yes. When you have a joint account, each account holder is responsible for the full amount of the balance. The credit card company can seek to collect the amount due from either account holder.

And a homeowner may find it difficult to sell any property that has a lien against it. Prospective buyers may avoid a property to which someone else has a claim.

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.

The short and legal answer is YES, the creditor can force the sale of that half interest, but normally they won't. Part of the reason is that half of a property is not worth half of what the property is worth.

The judgment lien is not going to impact a homesteaded property so the mortgage lender would be able to obtain a first lien on your property. So, as long as you otherwise qualify for a mortgage, the judgment lien should not be a problem.
