The landlord must first obtain a judgment against the tenant. I highly recommend small claims court--it is fast, easy, inexpensive, and no lawyer or legal experience is required. The small claims jurisdictional limit in WA is $4,000. Once you receive a judgment, file the judgment in superior court. This places a lien on all real estate owned by the defendant tenant. You may also proceed to garnishment, executions, and supplemental proceedings. Note that attorneys' fees and court costs can be recovered after you get the judgment. If the debt exceeds $4,000, see a landlord/tenant attorney. **Landlord Solutions provides free consultations, 866-TO-EVICT.**

You would have to prepare and record an appropriate lien instrument against the property in WA state. Where you live is irrelevant. But usually a lien is based on a debt and if the debt is an IOU, you may want to make sure that as many of your rights are governed by the law that is more favorable to you if possible (WA vs. AZ).

Can they put a judgment against your property if only your nane is on the deed wife has a judgment against her?

It depends on your state: If you live in most community property states (Louisiana West through Texas, and on the California) a judgment against her may affect your property if it is deemed to be "community property" which is property acquired during the marriage. If you live in a common law state, and the state has maintained "tenants by the entireities" as the form in which married persons hold property, then the property is, in all likelihood, free from the lien of the judgment.

Can credit card companies put a lien on a house for unpaid debt if you bought your house through an owner carry?

Yes, it is irrelevant how the property was purchased. If it is titled in the judgment debtor's name a lien can be placed on the property. The exception could be if the judgment debtor is married and does not live in a community property state and the spouse is not a co-judgment debtor.


I own a home and my mother resides in another home on the property her debt is showing as lien against the property but she doesn't have the house in her namecan a credit card company do that?

If it is credit card debt, the lien is invalid, but if you or your mother ignored a complaint about the debt and failed to object to the lien, you may have to do something about it in the court that granted the lien. If you live in a state where a credit card lien can be obtained without a court order, you will have to take some other legal action. If you fail to have the lien removed, it will come back to haunt you if you want to refinance or sell the property, or if you die.

How do you file a lien on a house that is in a trust in Massachusetts?

Yes, a lien can be filed on a piece of real property, regardless of the owner. However, the reason for the lien has to be directly related to the actual owner or the property itself. i.e., if a trust owns a house and I live in the house, and you have a judgement against me, there is no attaching a lien on the house for my debt.


What happens when you put a lien on property?

You will have to pay off the lien at the time you sell the home you live in. If you apply for a loan based on the house as collateral, then the lien will be taken into consideration. I am not sure if your mortgage company is going to recognize the lien as being in first place should you also default on this home, or if there will be other issues with them.
