FAQ
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.
An example of a general lien is a state income tax lien. Unlike specific liens that attach only to particular assets, a general lien is against all of the assets of a debtor and not tied to a specific asset. For instance, A mortgage lien is tied specifically to a piece of property.
It shows up on your credit report as well as on any background checks. The judgment is considered a lien against your property, including any real estate that you have, in the state in which the judgment is filed.
Liens are legal claims asserted by creditors against a percentage of your settlement or judgment. A lien reduction involves negotiating with lienholders to decrease the amount they're entitled to recover from your settlement or judgment.
Lien and Judgment Negotiation Locate your creditor and find out how much you owe: This can often be the most challenging part of lien negotiation. Evaluate and explain whether it is worth it to try and negotiate the lien or judgment: Some liens are negotiable and some aren't. Negotiate: Negotiation is an art.
A judgment lien is considered a nonconsensual lien because it is attached to a piece of property without the owner's consent or agreement.
Most judgment liens last for 10 years and can be renewed for another 10 years. For example, the creditor could place a judgment lien on your home which would inhibit you from selling the property without first paying the creditor what you owe.
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.
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.
