Can I file a lien?

Florida

I run a staffing agency and I provide a maintenance technician for this property management company. They are $9700 in arrears. I do have a credit card on file and the company has agreed to pay in $500 increments every two weeks until they are paid up and will pay sooner. That being said, it's a lot of money and they have a property they are selling that is pending. Can I lien that property? Thank you! - Brendan

Under the described circumstances you are not allowed a construction lien. Those liens are for contracted labor, services and materials to improve real property.

No. You cannot lien for maintenance services, only for “improvements” to the property.
